Saddle Up Pardner!

Howdy Pardner!  You're in for a real treat.  When I saw this recipe, I just had to pull on my cowboy boots, place my 10 gallon hat on my head, find my oversized novelty belt buckle, and head to Harter House for their delicious ground beef and Pappy's seasoning.

Western Burgers

Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:
2lbs ground hamburger
8 frozen onion rings
8 slices bacon
8 tablespoons BBQ sauce
4 slices cheddar cheese
4 hamburger buns

Sprinkle a little on top to add a little spice!

Step 1: Deep fry or bake onion rings according to package directions (if deep drying drain on paper towels). Set aside. Add bacon to the fry-pan and cook until crispy, drain on paper towels . Set aside.
Step 2: Shape ground burger into 4 patties and season on both sides wit a little bit of Pappy's. Lightly grease grill grates. Heat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Cook hamburger patties until they have reached an internal temperature of 160 degrees. Within the last few minutes of cooking top each patty with a slice of cheddar cheese. Once cheese has melted, remove from the grill.
Step 3: Place the hamburger buns halves onto the grill and cook on the underside until lightly browned. Remove from the grill. Spread BBQ sauce onto both halves on each bun. Top with a hamburger patty, 2 slices of bacon, and 2 onion rings.
Yield: (4 Servings)
