Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon, cut into bite size pieces
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
- 2 pounds ground chuck
- 1 large shallot, diced
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 4 ounces Swiss cheese, cubed
- 4 sesame seed buns
- 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
Place the bacon in a large saute pan and cook until crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and reserve 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat in the pan. Add the mushrooms and cook until caramelized, about 5 minutes. Set the mushrooms aside to cool in a bowl.
In a large bowl, combine the beef, shallot, black pepper, salt, and Worcestershire. Separate the mixture into 4 equal portions. Divide each portion into 2 separate patties.
Combine the cheese into the cooled mushrooms and bacon mixture. Take 1 patty and top with 2-ounces of the filling. Place another patty on top and pinch around the edges to make sure that the filling is totally covered. Make the rest of the patties the same way.
Over medium-high heat, heat a large skillet with grapeseed oil. Once hot, add the burgers and cook for 2 minutes per side. Place the pan into the oven and cook for 4 to 6 more minutes for medium burgers.
Remove from the oven and serve on a sesame seed bun.

Oh my goodness, this was the best burger ever. My daughter and I didn't eat the chips. We couldn't put our burgers down. I forgot the bacon, but next time I WON'T'. They were so moist and juicy!!!!! I can't wait to make them for my husband. He doesn't like mushrooms, so I will leave them out for him. I made extra patties for lunch tomorrow.
Thanks Aaron!!!!

This was so tasty, we used pepperjack instead of swiss and didn't add mushrooms, and we loved it!

This is the best burger I've ever eaten. See I don't eat hamburgers unless they are home made. And I shared this receipe with my sister and neice in Virginia and family in New York. They love it now there is no other way for me to eat a burger. Aaron you are the best cook ever you make cooking look so easy. Also your verbal presentation is great and keeps people interested. Are you still on TV I haven't seen you in awhile. And I've been cooking since I was 13 years old and now 57 years young.
