💡Tips
1. Don’t Overwork The Meat
When mixing the ground beef with bacon and blue cheese, use gentle hands and mix just until everything is combined.
If you mix too much or squeeze the meat too hard, the burgers will become dense and tough.
You want to keep the meat mixture loose and just combined enough that the ingredients stay together.
2. Getting The Perfect Sear
Make sure your skillet is hot before adding the patties – you should hear a sizzle when they hit the pan.
Once you place the patties in the pan, don’t move them around. Let them cook undisturbed for the full 5 minutes before flipping. This gives you that nice brown crust on the outside.
If you’re using a cast iron skillet, it works even better because it holds heat well and gives an even better sear.

FAQ
How do I prevent my burgers from falling apart?
These burgers can be a bit delicate because of the cheese and bacon mixed in. First, make sure your bacon is completely cool and crumbled into small pieces.
Mix everything gently but thoroughly – you want the ingredients well combined but not overworked.
After forming the patties, put them in the fridge for at least 15 minutes to firm up. When cooking, don’t flip them too early – wait for that first side to form a good crust, which helps hold everything together.
