Mac & Cheese Burger

SERVES: 4

COOK TIME: 10 Min

We paired two American favorites to make one outrageously good summer recipe. Our Mac & Cheese Burger is a big juicy burger that's topped with lettuce, pickles, bacon, and...macaroni and cheese! Make these burgers at your next cookout and we're sure you'll have the most interesting burgers on the block!

What You'll Need

1 1/4 pound ground chuck
1 tablespoon steak sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 (12-ounce) container frozen macaroni and cheese
4 hamburger rolls
Lettuce for garnish
Pickle chips for garnish
4 strips bacon, cooked until crispy, cut in half

What to Do

Preheat a grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat.
In a medium bowl, combine beef, steak sauce, salt, and pepper; mix well. Form meat mixture into 4 equal patties.
Prepare macaroni and cheese according to package directions, set aside. Meanwhile, cook burgers 8 to 12 minutes or until desired doneness, turning halfway through.
Place lettuce on rolls, top with burgers, macaroni and cheese, pickles and bacon. Serve immediately.

Notes

If you are cooking the burgers on the grill, you can put the macaroni and cheese in either an aluminum pan or cast iron skillet and keep it warm right near the burgers!
A meal in itself! All ya need is dessert, and here's one we thought you'd like: our Mixed Berry Bars.

Well, okay, this is not the healthiest meal in the world, but it's awesome. A great burger with mac and cheese and bacon is a once-in-a-while really tasty dinner! My family loves to try variations of burgers and this is a favorite. It's funny how the cheese from the macaroni melts into the burger. Make this for Memorial Day weekend!
