How to Make BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger on Blackstone Griddle: 

• Prepare Griddle – Preheat the Blackstone Grill over medium high heat (approximately 400 degrees F). 

• Cook Bacon – Place bacon slices on the Blackstone Grill on one side and spread the oil out on the other side of the grill with a spatula.  

• Form into balls – Divide the ground beef that is in a large bowl into 6 even loosely packed balls (approximately ⅓ lb each).  

• Add beef to grill – Place the ground beef on the Blackstone grill next to the bacon on the oil.  

• Press hamburger flat – Press firmly on the ground beef balls into the Blackstone Grill.  Do not smash it all the way down but just press slightly to form a burger patty. 

• Season hamburger – Season the beef with the garlic salt and pepper.  

• Grill the burger – Cook the patties for 3 minutes -5 minutes.  

• Continue cooking bacon – While the beef is cooking, flip the bacon and add a bacon press on top if you have one (optional).  

• Flip Burgers – Flip the burgers and cook until burgers are cooked through (3-4 more minutes).

• Remove bacon from grill – Remove bacon when it is to your desired crispiness. Place on a paper towel or parchment paper lined plate.

• Add cheese to burger – Add a slice of the cheese to each burger patty.  

• Prepare your Hamburger – Remove the beef and add them to one of the hamburger buns. Top with two slices of bacon and evenly top each burger with the barbecue sauce.  

• Serve and Enjoy – Then add your favorite burger toppings and enjoy! Add your favorite onions rings or fries for a complete meal.

Blackstone Cheeseburger Tips:

• Change Oil – Use any oil with a high smoke point. Vegetable oil, canola oil, coconut oil or avocado oil will all work great in this recipe.
• Change the Cheese – We used sharp cheddar cheese, but pepper jack cheese or provolone cheese would be amazing on this burger.
• Barbecue Sauce – You can use different flavors of BBQ sauce to add spice, sweetness or tanginess to your burger.

What to Serve with Burgers:

When we make these bacon burgers, we like to make sides that we can prepare directly on the griddle. This makes for an easy cleanup.
