Ingredients

For the Bacon:

  • 12 Sliced Bacon
  • 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
  • 1 Tablespoons Brown Sugar

For the Burgers:

  • 2 lbs ground hamburger beef 85% lean
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Pepper
  • 6 Tablespoons Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 6 Tablespoons Grape Jelly
  • 6 Hamburger Buns

Instructions

  • For the Bacon:
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Place the bacon on a rack on a lined cookie sheet.  Mix the maple syrup and brown sugar together in a small bowl.  Brush this mixture on top of the bacon on the rack.
  • Bake for 25-40 minutes until the bacon is cooked through and crispy.  Then let the bacon cool for 10 minutes.
  • For the Burgers:
  • Preheat a grill over medium heat (approximately 350-400 degrees F).
  • Form the ground beef into 6 patties approximately 1/3 pound each.
  • Place on the grill over direct heat.  Season the patties with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes per side until the patties reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.  When you remove the burgers from the grill, top each patty immediately with 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter while the patties are still warm.
  • Place the hamburger buns on the grill for approximately 1 minute to toast the buns. Remove the buns.
  • When serving, drizzle approximately 1 tablespoon of the grape jelly over each patty and serve on the bacon with 2 slices of bacon on top.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Be careful not to over-mix the beef or the burgers will be tough.  Just mix with your hands until just combined. 
Use an instant-read meat thermometer to make sure that the beef is cooked to a safe temperature before eating.  
Refrigerate leftover patties in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
