Delicious! Best prepared on the grill of course, but I freeze them and cook them on my Foreman during the winter.
Ready in: 2 hours 15 mins

Ingredients

Makes: 16 patties

• 1 pound bacon, diced
• 2 jalapenos, seeded and diced
• 3 pounds ground beef
• 1/4 cup kosher salt
• 1/2 cup wing sauce
• 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 8 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 eggs
• 8 ounces bleu cheese, crumbled

Preparation method

Prep: 30 mins | Cook: 15 mins | Extra time: 1 hour 30 mins, setting

1. Cut the bacon into small pieces before cooking, and start it frying on the stove. It needs to get to a soft doneness, so that it finishes cooking in the burgers and doesn’t burn on the grill. When finished, take the bacon (and some of the grease) out of the pan and set it aside.
2. Dice the jalapenos, avoiding seeds when possible (unless you want them extra-spicy!), add to the ground beef in a large mixing bowl. Mix in the kosher salt, wing sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, eggs, and crumbled bleu cheese.
3. Check to ensure bacon isn’t hot anymore (so long as it won’t cook the hamburger), and add it (with some grease if you’d like) to the hamburger. Mix all well.
4. Form into patties on a large cookie sheet. I usually shoot for quarter-pounders, but its up to you. Because of the size, I usually need a second layer. Put a piece of aluminum foil over the first layer and continue to make patties. Once the second layer is complete, add another layer or foil and wrap around sides to keep direct air flow out
5. Let burgers rest in fridge for 1 to 2 hours, the longer the better, so that it will stick together better while cooking.
6. Place on grill for desired cook time. Thicker burgers will cook more slowly. I recommend medium rare-medium, but everyone has their own preferences!
7. Remove from heat, LET BURGERS REST for 5 to 7 minutes so that the juices can redistribute throughout the burger. If pretzel buns are available, I strongly recommend enjoying these burgers with them.Use for leftovers

I freeze the individual extra patties in Ziploc bags and cook them when I need a quick meal on the Foreman.
