Nothing says America like thick, juicy, bacon chili cheeseburgers. You can almost feel your arteries clog as you eat this monstrous burger, but it tastes so darn good.
Just like any burger, the toppings are totally up to the individual, and if you can finish the whole thing with a side of fries, you have a huge stomach.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
6 strips of thick cut bacon
1 can chili
3 slices of cheddar cheese (or cheese of your choosing)
Hamburger buns, toasted if you so choose
Directions:
Combine beef, egg garlic powder, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl.
Shape into three patties and fry on medium heat until cooked through.
Meanwhile, fry bacon to the crispiness of your choice.
Heat chili through in a small saucepan.
Spread butter on to the facing surfaces of your hamburger buns and toast them in a pan or on a griddle.
Before removing burgers, place cheese and bacon on top and let the cheese melt.
Place burger on bottom bun, add chili and toppings of your choice.
Try to eat it all without making a mess.
