#BurgerGoodness (with Bacon!)
Burgers. Burgers. BURGERS! Who doesn’t love a good burger! 80/20 beef, bacon, extra sharp cheddar cheese, grilled mushrooms and onions as toppings, paired with the perfect side (we prefer our low carb keto french fry recipe!) This recipe is fast and to the point, and will satisfy your burger cravings.
Keto Bacon Cheeseburgers | Low Carb Burger Recipe
Patties, Please
It’s all about the patties, right? After the beef has reached room temperature, begin forming your burger patties. I like using organic beef when I can find a good deal! As you can see by the photos, I found organic beef on sale at Kroger (wahoo bargain!). The square one pound packaged beef makes portioning burger patties very easy: divide each package by four and form your patties.
Seasoning + Handling
I like to keep it simple when it comes to burgers, and really let the beef flavor come through – this is achieved by not over-seasoning and over-handling the beef. For seasonings, a little salt, pepper and garlic powder goes a long way.
The Bacon
Last but certainly not least is the bacon prep! Right when you take your beef out of the fridge, grab the bacon and turn the oven onto 400 degrees to pre-heat. Open the bacon and place it evenly on a tin foil lined baking sheet. Usually I’ll just cook an entire pack of bacon and use it in other dishes throughout the week.
