Ultimate Gourmet Cheese-Stuffed Bacon Avocado Smash Burgers
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds ground beef
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 burger buns
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 4 slices American cheese
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 8 slices cooked bacon
- ½ cup burger sauce
- 1 avocado, sliced
- ¼ cup BBQ sauce
- 8 pickle slices
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Beef Patties:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
3. Shape and Fill the Patties:
- Divide the seasoned beef mixture into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a patty, approximately ½-inch thick.
- Place one slice each of Swiss, American, and cheddar cheese in the center of four patties. Top with the remaining patties, pressing the edges together to seal in the cheese.
4. Bake the Burgers:
- Place the stuffed patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the cheese has melted.
5. Toast the Buns:
- During the last 5 minutes of baking, place the burger buns on another baking sheet and toast them in the oven until golden brown.
6. Assemble the Burgers:
- Spread a generous amount of burger sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Place a cheese-stuffed patty on each.
- Top with cooked bacon slices, avocado, BBQ sauce, pickles, and onion slices.
- Cover with the bun tops and serve immediately.
