Most people probably don’t need a recipe for grilled burgers, but I had to share this bacon burger from Autumn’s Harvest Farm. Paired with our lettuce, tomato, and onion it was the perfect lunch on a hot day. The bacon burgers are beef and bacon ground together. You can purchase backon burgers at Autumn’s Harvest Farm Store, their stand at the Ithaca Farmers’ Market, The Piggery in Ithaca, The Trumansburg Farmers’ Market, and many restaurants use their pasture raised meats. This is such an easy meal, the burgers don’t even need to be seasoned, but I did add some freshly ground pepper. I sliced up an onion to add to the grill.
The fat from the bacon really flares up on the grill. These patties are thin so grilling them on high heat with the lid open a few minutes per side should do the trick. The onions might take a little longer. Serve with our fresh lettuce and thick sliced tomatoes. Add your favorite condiments and cheese if you like!
