Ingredients

  • 8 strips of savory bacon
  • Chopped ½ white onion
  • Minced garlic clove
  • A drizzle of balsamic vinegar, as desired
  • Freshly chopped mushrooms
  • Ground beef weighing ½ pound
  • Dry bread crumbs measuring ½ cup
  • Italian seasoning, a teaspoonful
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, about 1 ½ tablespoons
  • An egg
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste
  • A split malted wheat hamburger bun
  • Slices of tomato and Swiss cheese, each totaling 2

Step 1

To begin, preheat your oven to a toasty 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) for that perfect cooking environment.

Step 2

Start off by sizzling some bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it turns a deliciously crisp and golden brown. Once done, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess grease.

Step 3

In the same skillet, crank up the heat to medium-high and toss in some chopped onions and garlic. Cook them until the onions become tender and the garlic starts to caramelize. Pour in a splash of balsamic vinegar and let it sizzle for a minute. Throw in the chopped mushrooms and sauté them for an additional three minutes before removing the skillet from the heat.

Step 4

Next, finely dice four slices of the cooked bacon while keeping the other four aside for later. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced bacon with ground beef, bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, Parmesan cheese, the mushroom mixture, and an egg. Roll up your sleeves and mix everything together thoroughly by hand. Don't forget to season with salt and pepper before shaping the mixture into two hearty patties.

Step 5

Now, grab your hamburger buns and place them open-faced on a baking sheet without any grease. Top each bun half with a beef patty, a slice of juicy tomato, two slices of the reserved bacon, and a generous slice of Swiss cheese.

Step 6

Pop the assembled burgers into the preheated oven and let them bake for about 25 minutes or until the meat is perfectly cooked through. Enjoy your homemade, flavorful bacon mushroom burgers straight from the oven!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your patties fresh and juicy by storing them in a sealed container or zipper bag in the refrigerator. Make sure to separate them with wax paper to prevent sticking.
  2. 2. For optimal flavor, store your condiments like lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles in the crisper drawer of your fridge. This will help maintain their crispness and extend their shelf life.
