ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 3⁄4 lb ground chuck
- 3⁄4 lb ground sirloin
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1 large red onion, cut into 1/2 inch-thick slices
- 8 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 8 small dinner rolls, halved horizontally
- 8 lettuce leaves
- 1 tomatoes, cut into 8 slices
- 16 slices bacon, cooked to a crisp, slices halved
directions
- In a small saucepan, combine ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard & Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally until sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Pour sauce into a large bowl and set aside.
- Crumble the chuck & sirloin into a bowl, sprinkle with salt & pepper, and toss lightly to combine. Shape into 8 (3 inch) burgers, about 1/2 inch-thick.
- Preheat grill to medium-hot and oil grill rack. Grill onions for 5 minutes on each side, or until softened and browned. Transfer onions to bowl with sauce; toss to combine.
- Grill burgers, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. (I took the sauce that was made & dressed each side as well) Top with cheese during the last 1 to 2 minutes of cooking time, with grill covered, to melt cheese. Remove burgers from grill. Grill buns cut sides down until toasted.
- To assemble burgers, top bottom halves of buns with lettuce, tomato slices, and burgers. Spoon on onions, and top each burger with 2 pieces of bacon and bun tops.

Mom of 3 (4 if you count my DH)
My husband & I work together. He is a chiropractor & do all of his insurance billing. For fun, I am a mom first, so having fun with my kids is fun- but for myself I like reading a good "Chick-Lit" book, or having Mommy Time (when I can fit it in.) My favorite cookbook is any cookbook that isn't elaborate, but nutritious. My passion is my family and living life like tomorrow is its last. My pet peeves are people talking over others (especially me), & eating with their mouth open.
