Big Skillet Burger

This one sort of goes into the category of yeah you can do it but why? I mean it tasted really good but I wouldn't eat it as a burger on a bun. If you cut that bad boy into quarters you will need some triangle shaped buns! It's more suited as a meatloaf style dinner. The next time I'll probably add some bread crumbs.



You will need about a pound of ground chuck, about a quarter of an onion minced, one egg, a few slices of cheddar cheese, four slices of cooked bacon and salt and pepper to taste. Mix the ground chuck, onion and egg together with your hands. Divide the mixture into halves and form into patty shapes. Top one of the patties with cheddar cheese and bacon. Place the other patty on top and form until the edges are sealed and you feel guilty. Season the top with freshly ground black pepper. Cook in a cast iron skillet over medium high heat for about 4 minutes then pop into a pre-heated 350F oven for about ten minutes.
