Bacon Gouda Patties Recipe

Place the bacon in a large deep skillet and cook over medium-high heat turning occasionally until evenly browned about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Cool and crumble into a bowl. Stir in the gouda cheese parsley and Dijon mustard. Set filling aside.

Place the ground beef into a mixing bowl with the bread crumbs egg chopped garlic and garlic powder. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Mix until evenly blended and form into 4 very thin patties.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Divide the filling in half and spread each half onto a patty. Top filling with remaining patties to make 2 stuffed burgers. Press and seal edges tightly together to keep the filling enclosed.

Cook stuffed burgers on the preheated grill until the patties are cooked to your desired degree of doneness and the cheese has melted 3 to 5 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Serve on toasted hamburger buns.
