Description
Indulgent, comfort-food burgers loaded with cheddar, bacon, and ranch flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ lb ground chuck (80/20 recommended)
- 3 Tbsp sour cream
- 2 Tbsp ranch dressing mix (dry)
- ⅓ cup cooked and crumbled bacon (about 30–35 g)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (about 113 g)
- 6 hamburger buns
- Lettuce leaves, tomato slices (for topping)
- Mustard and mayo (for topping; optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, sour cream, ranch dressing mix, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until well combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Form the mixture into 6 hamburger patties, making sure they are even in size and thickness. Press a small dimple in the center of each patty.
- Preheat your grill, grill pan, or skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook to your desired doneness, flipping once when the underside has a nice crust.
- Remove burgers from heat and let rest for 3–5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
- Toast buns if desired, then assemble the burgers with toppings. Serve immediately.
