Cuisine: American
Serves: 1
Ingredients:
- 2 Slices Brioche Bread
- ½ Lb 80/20 Ground Beef
- 1 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese Cubes
- 2 Slices of Whatever Cheese
- 8 Strips Bacon
- Barbecue Sauce
- Lettuce
- Tomatoes
- Mayonnaise
- Flour
- Italian Style Breadcrumbs
- Egg wash
- Vegetable Oil
Instructions:
- Bake Bacon. Don't over cook the shit. Make sure it's still pliable,
but not raw because that's gross. If you choose thick cut like a
boss, it should take between 18 - 20 minutes at 400°F.
- Grab two ¼ lb balls of ground beef and flatten them into a circle.
- Slice up 4 cubes of sharp cheddar cheese and place it in the center
of one of the burger patties and then place the other burger patty on
top pinching the edges together.
- *NOTE* if you don't want the burger to separate you must compact the
meat with the cheese removing as much air as possible.
- Season your beef with salt & pepper and grill it for about 4
minutes per side on medium high heat. If you like your burgers more
done, add a few minutes per side.
- Let your burger rest until it is manageable, so you can wrap the
bacon around the burger. We wrapped it around like a tornado using
tooth picks to hold the bacon in place. This took about 8 strips of
bacon to fully wrap.
- Now toss the burger in flour so that the egg has something to latch
itself to. Then generously rub a beaten egg all over the burger and
finish it off in bread crumbs. At this point, you should not be able
to see anything but breadcrumbs.
- Freeze this for at the very least 30 minutes. You want it to be firm
enough so that when you take the tooth picks out it doesn't fall
apart.
- Deep fry at 365°F for 4-5 minutes or until the color looks golden
brown. Everything else is cooked, so we really just want to get that
breading mixture to get a nice color and texture.
- During this process we are preparing our grilled cheese, but instead
of using butter on the bread, we used mayonnaise. It provides a much
richer flavor and texture and is grandma recommended and approved.
For the cheese, I decided to use Swiss because I think it goes well
with offsetting the power coming from the cheddar on the inside.
- To stack this thing up, we went with a layer of lettuce and tomato on
the base, then the giant deep fried turd followed by some more bacon
and a drizzle of barbecue sauce.
- Cut this thing in half and enjoy the many delicious layers. If you
fried it enough the cheese should ooze out of this thing, which only
adds to the amazingness of this epic burger.
- *NOTE* remember to only take 1 bite for the hellth of it, or else you
will be taking two bites to the hospital.
