Loaded with cheese, this classic burger is everything you need from your summer cookout and the X-Fire makes it easy!
Instructions
- Step 1: Burning the Ultimate Blend Pellets, turn X-Fire to grill mode and both knobs to high with sear control off.
- Step 2: Form beef into 1/3 pound patties and season evenly with Ben’s Heffer Dust.
- Step 3: Place cast iron skillet on the right side of the grill and adjust sear control to low.
- Step 4: Place burger patties on the left hand side of the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes until desired doneness is reached.
- Step 5: Top patties with American cheese then remove from X-fire and set aside.
- Step 6: Add bacon to cast iron skillet and season with a little Ben’s Heffer Dust. Cook bacon 3-5 minutes until desired doneness. Remove bacon and place on paper towels to drain oil.
- Step 7: Add eggs to cast iron skillet and cook 2-3 minutes a side.
- Step 8: Wipe out skillet and add 1/2-3/4 cup of shredded cheddar and mozzarella mix.
- Step 9: Allow cheese to melt and cook until solid enough to flip with spatula. Flip in skillet.
- Step 10: Add buns to top warming rack to toast for a minute or two.
- Step 11: Add bun top to cheese. Once you can scrape the cheese off the skillet, flip it open face onto your serving plate.
- Step 12: Build your burger by placing the bottom bun down. Add your favorite burger sauce. (We used Harry's Secret Sweet Sauce.) Add lettuce, onion, tomato, bacon, then egg.
- Step 13: Place your cheese skirt top bun on top to complete burger and slice immediately to get that ooey gooey egg yolk to bust for extra flavor.
