My family loves these spruced-up hamburgers all year long. Bacon gives extra flavor to the meat and adds a pleasing twist. The patties are equally good with or without the bun. —Jody Bahler, Wolcott, Indiana

Ingredients

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2/3 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup ketchup
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 pounds ground beef
10 bacon strips
10 hamburger buns, split, optional

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into ten 3/4-in.-thick patties. Wrap each patty with a bacon strip; secure with wooden toothpicks.
Grill patties, uncovered, over medium heat for 5-6 minutes on each side or until juices run clear and a thermometer reads 160°. Discard toothpicks. Serve on buns if desired.

Made these tonight - very moist and flavorful! Will definitely make again! Cooked on the BBQ, served on a sesame bun with grilled fresh pineapple slices ontop - mmmm!

I was really surprised to see the previous rating of "1". My family loved these burgers. They are juicy and flavorful. I did reduce the Worcestershire to 2 T. as I thought 3 would be a little too much. The result was delicious!
