Pub-style Burgers with Bacon, English Cheddar and HP

Prep Time40 Minutes

Servings4

Cook Time15 Minutes

Ingredients

700 grams (about 24 ounces) extra lean ground beef

1/3 cup dried bread crumbs

1 large egg

1/2 cup finely diced onion

1 large garlic clove, minced

1 Tbsp hot English mustard, such as Keen’s brand

2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

1/2 tsp salt

freshly ground black pepper, to taste

2 Tbsp vegetable oil

100 grams aged English white cheddar cheese, such as Tickler, grated

1/4 cup HP sauce, or to taste

4 thick strips of bacon, halved widthwise, fried until crispy, and drained well

Directions

Place beef, bread crumbs, egg, onion, garlic, mustard, Worcestershire, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix to combine. With your hands lightly dampened with cold water, shape meat into four, 3/4-inch thick patties. Now make a deep dimple in the centre of one side of each patty.

Preheat oven to 225 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place oil in a very large skillet set over medium, medium-high heat. Add the burger patties and cook four to five minutes per side, or until entirely cooked through. (When cooked, the very centre of each burger when tested with an instant read meat thermometer should register reaches 160 F (71 C) or above).

Set buns in the oven to warm. Set burger patties on the baking sheet. Spread the top each patty with HP sauce, and then top each patty with grated cheese. Remove buns from the oven. Set the burger patties in the oven and heat just until the cheese melts. While that occurs, spread each bottom bun with mayonnaise, and then set on some lettuce, a tomato slice and 2 pieces of bacon. When the cheese has melted, set a patty on each bottom bun, top each one with a tomato slice and some gherkins, set on top buns, and serve.
