Kerry's Asiago Cheese Hamburger

This burger is savory, moist, and slightly spicy with the sumptuous flavor of Asiago cheese. I made this up for my husband's birthday. It is always a challenge between us to cook the best burger. I think mine is in the lead so far. Do you agree?

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• ¼ cup barbeque sauce
• ½ cup grated Asiago cheese
• 4 hamburger buns, split
• ½ cup Buffalo wing sauce
• 1 pound ground beef sirloin
• 8 slices cooked bacon
• ½ cup sweet onion, sliced
• ¼ cup Additional ketchup

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat.

Step 2

Mix the beef, Worcestershire sauce, buffalo wing sauce, pepper, salt, and garlic powder in a large bowl. Form mixture into four patties. Place the patties on a plate; cover. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the onion in the olive oil until translucent, about 5 minutes; set aside.

Step 4

Cook the beef patties on the preheated grill on one side for about 5 minutes; brush the top of each burger with 1 tablespoon of barbeque sauce; flip. Cook burgers until well done, or the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees F (85 degrees C), about five minutes more.

Step 5

Place one burger on the bottom half of each bun. Top each burger with cooked onions, ketchup, Asiago cheese, and bacon slices; sandwich with top of bun and serve.
