Bacon Stuffed Burgers 4 bacon strips
1/4 cup chopped onion 1 can (4 ounces) mushroom stems and pieces, drained and finly chopped 1 pound ground beef 1 pound bulk pork sausage 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1/2 teaspoon pepper 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 2 tablespoons steak sauce 8 hamburger buns, split and toasted Lettuce leaves, optional Cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon to paper towels; drain, reserving 2 tablespoons drippings. Saute onion in drippings until tender. Crumble bacon; add with mushrooms to skillet and set aside. In a large bowl, combine beef, pork, cheese, pepper, garlic powder and steak sauce. Shape into 16 patties. Divide bacon mixture over half of the patties. Place remaining patties on top and press edges tightly to seal. Grill over medium heat until well-done (pork sausage in burgers requires thorough cooking). Serve on buns with lettuce, if desired. Note: When forming ground beef into patties, lightly form them rather than compacting with force. Gentle shaping will result in more tender burgers.
