Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend)
  • 1 oz dry ranch dressing seasoning mix
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon bits, finely chopped
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 brioche hamburger buns

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, dry ranch seasoning, chopped bacon, shredded cheddar, green onions, and Worcestershire sauce.
  2. Mix the ingredients by hand until just incorporated, ensuring even distribution without overworking the meat to maintain texture.
  3. Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty approximately 1-inch thick.
  4. Preheat a grill or heavy cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Place the patties on the heat source and cook for approximately 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) is reached.
  6. Remove the patties from the heat and allow them to rest for 3 minutes.
  7. Toast the buns and assemble the burgers with preferred condiments.
