Ingredients

• 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 1 pound ground beef
• 6 slices bacon
• 6 hamburger buns, split

Directions

1. Preheat a grill for high heat.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, onion, egg, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Crumble in the ground beef, and mix together by hand. Form into 6 patties, and wrap a slice of bacon around each one. Secure bacon with toothpicks.
3. Place patties on the grill, and cook for 5 minutes per side, or until well done. Remove toothpicks before serving on hamburger buns.

Review
I read the reviews online before I made this and everyone seemed to think that the bacon made the meat juicier and more tender. My thoughts are that I'm not sure that the bacon added or took away from the burger. Had the bacon been a little crispier, it would've added some crunch and texture, but that's been done before and I think the burger joints have perfected that one. This was just an add on that made it look cool. :) I do think that the meat was good and we felt that there was no need to add cheese on top as it is infused into the burger. Enjoy and write your own review.
*Don't forget to remove the toothpicks before you eat!
