These Bacon Cheddar Cheese Stuffed Burgers combine the smoky crunch of bacon with creamy melted cheddar cheese inside a perfectly seasoned beef patty. Plus, the grilling process gives you those delicious grill marks and fantastic outdoor-flavor. If you liked the richness of other hearty comfort meals then you’ll love building this burger-experience.

Here’s how to achieve burger greatness, complete with pro tips to ensure each stuffed burger turns out juicy, flavorful, and melty.

Pro Tips for Perfect Grilled Stuffed Burgers

  1. Choose the right meat-lean percentage: Use 85% lean ground beef so the patties don’t dry out and stay juicy inside.
  2. Don’t overmix the meat: When you combine ground beef with bacon and cheese, mix gently so you don’t make the texture tough.
  3. Pre-cook the bacon lightly: Parcook the bacon so it’s partially rendered but still pliable — this helps it finish cooking inside the burger without over-browning.
  4. Use a medium-high grill heat (~500 °F): That heat gives great crust and grill mark contrast while sealing in the juices.
  5. Seal the stuffed edges well: When forming the burger patties around the cheese and bacon filling, pinch the seams so the stuffing doesn’t leak out.
  6. Rest briefly after grilling: Let the burgers sit for a minute before serving so the cheese sets slightly and you don’t lose all the filling when you bite in.

  • Preparation time: 15 minutes
  • Cooking time: 10 minutes (grilling)
  • Servings: 4 burgers
  • Equipment: Grill or grill pan, skillet (for bacon), mixing bowl

With these Bacon Cheddar Cheese Stuffed Burgers, your backyard grill becomes a stage for gourmet burgers that deliver bold flavor and melty, delicious surprise in every bite.

Ingredients:

  • 8 slices bacon
  • 1 pound 85% lean ground beef
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • For serving: toasted hamburger buns, leafy lettuce, tomatoes, onions, ketchup, mustard, chipotle mayo, etc.

Directions:

  1. Preheat the grill or grill pan: Heat to medium/high — about 500 °F.
  2. Parcook the bacon: Add the bacon to a skillet over medium heat (on the stove, not the grill). Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until the bacon begins to render but is not totally crispy. The goal is to parcook the bacon since it’ll finish cooking in the stuffed burger patties. Remove from the heat. Once cool enough to handle, finely chop into small pieces.
  3. Form the bacon cheddar stuffed burger patties: Add the chopped bacon to a bowl with the ground beef, shredded cheddar cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and ground black pepper. Using your hands, combine the mixture until the bacon and cheddar are evenly dispersed. Be careful not to overmix. Using a burger press or mold, form into 4 equally sized burger patties.
  4. Grill the stuffed burgers: Grill the stuffed burgers over direct heat for about 6 minutes, flipping halfway through for medium doneness. The burgers should have beautiful grill marks and tons of melty cheese oozing out!
  5. Serve as desired: On toasted buns with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and condiments. Enjoy!
