Thanks to SABER Grills for sponsoring this post. Make this Father’s Day a #BetterFathersDay and win dad his very own SABER Grill! As always all opinions are my own.

There are 3 B’s in this recipe title that I’m pretty sure caught your eye, bacon, burgers, and bourbon. Seriously guys it doesn’t get much better than that when it comes to summer grilling and Father’s Day. Making an all out burger like this isn’t something you normally see me do, but with Father’s Day only a couple weeks away I knew I had to make a burger that my dad would be proud to say his daughter came up with!

I have a confession to make. The men in my life (my husband and my dad) don’t exactly have the same ideas as me in terms of what makes a great meal. I think a good meal is one that is full of fresh vegetables, good quality meat, and a beautiful presentation. It doesn’t leave me sitting around the rest of the night with my stomach lopping over my pants wondering what the heck happened. My husband and dad on the other hand prefer a more over the top meal full of meat, carbs, cheese, and the more it’s slopping out all over their hands and the more napkins they need, the better!

I’m sure my dad isn’t the only one who would prefer to eat these bacon burgers over a kale salad for Father’s Day or any day for that matter! You know what else dad would like, a SABER Grill to cook these tasty burgers on! The SABER line features 8 infrared grills, cooking tools and accessories, and just about anything dad will need to create his outdoor dream kitchen. SABER’s infrared heating system not only uses 30% less gas than a traditional grill, but it keeps the meat you’re grilling juicier. No more dried out burgers and steaks! Another bonus is that SABER grills are incredibly easy to assemble, and have a rapid pre-heat cycle that goes from 0 to 700 degrees in less than 10 minutes, which of course means you get to eat sooner rather than later.

So why am I telling you all the wonderful things about SABER grills? Because I’m helping to give one away of course! This Father’s Day, not only can you make dad these amazing bacon burgers with bourbon caramelized onions and goat cheese, but you can also surprise him with a SABER Cast 500 Grill to make them on.

Yields 4 burgers Bacon Burgers with Bourbon Caramelized Onions and Goat Cheese 20 minPrep Time 20 minCook Time 40 minTotal Time Save Recipe Save Recipe Print Recipe My Recipes My Lists My Calendar Ingredients Bourbon Caramelized Onions 2 teaspoons grapeseed or other flavorless oil

1 large yellow onion

1 teaspoon maple syrup or brown sugar

1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

Black pepper to taste

2 tablespoons bourbon

Honey Thyme Goat Cheese 4 ounces goat cheese, softened

1 tablespoon honey

1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped

Bacon Burgers 1 pound lean ground beef

4 slices of uncooked bacon, diced

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Black pepper to taste

Other Ingredients 4 hamburger buns

arugula or mixed greens Instructions Bourbon Caramelized Onions In a medium sized saute pan heat the oil over medium high heat. While the oil is heating, thinly slice the onion. Once the pan is hot add in the sliced onions, salt, and black pepper. Saute the onion for a couple minutes then add in the maple syrup or brown sugar. Turn the heat down to medium and continue to cook the onions until they soften and turn golden brown in color, about 6-8 minutes. Add the bourbon into the onions and saute for another minute, then remove them from the heat. Honey Thyme Goat Cheese In a small bowl mix together the goat cheese, honey, and fresh thyme until completely combined. Bacon Burgers Heat the grill to medium high heat and oil the grates to prevent the burgers from sticking. In a large bowl gently mix together the beef, diced uncooked bacon, salt, and pepper. Form the meat into 4 patties being careful not to overwork the meat. Grill the burger on each side for 4-6 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees and the juices run clear. Remove the burgers from the grill and toast the buns if desired. Assembling the Burgers Place a burger on the bottom half of each bun and top it with some of the bourbon caramelized onions and arugula. Spread an equal amount of the goat cheese on the top half of each of the 4 buns. Serve immediately. 7.8.1.2 764 https://reciperunner.com/bacon-burgers-bourbon-caramelized-onions-goat-cheese/
