Crack Burgers Ground Bacon (Print-Friendly Version)

Juicy ground chuck burgers mixed with sour cream, ranch, bacon, and cheddar cheese for a delicious meal.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Meat

01 - 1.5 lb ground chuck

→ Condiments and Seasonings

02 - 3 tbsp sour cream
03 - 2 tbsp ranch dressing mix

→ Add-ins

04 - ⅓ cup cooked and crumbled bacon
05 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

# How to Make It:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the ground chuck, sour cream, ranch dressing mix, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese until just integrated to preserve texture.
02 - Shape the mixture into four equally sized hamburger patties, each approximately 0.75 inch thick.
03 - Allow the patties to rest at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes to enable flavor melding and enhance structural integrity during cooking.
04 - Preheat the grill to medium heat. Cook the patties, flipping only once, until they reach desired doneness: 145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for well-done.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Resting the patties before grilling improves juiciness and helps maintain shape.
