Beer Can Burgers Recipe


I saw a recipe for these this morning, but when I went to make them tonight I couldn't find the post.  So I improvised the best I could from memory, and these were AWESOME!!!

Beer Can Burgers

You’ll need:

Ground beef

Onion, chopped

Bell pepper (I used red, green & yellow), chopped

Fresh mushrooms, chopped

Bacon

cheese

Beer can or similarly sized glass

 

Season the ground beef as you normally would for regular burgers (I used cayenne pepper, sea salt, ground pepper, and garlic powder), and make thick patties.  Sit patties on flat surface and press beer can(or glass) into patty, making large indentation.  Place cheese in indention and set patties aside.

 

Take vegetables and saute for a few minutes in olive oil.  Fill burger indentions with the vegetable mixture, and wrap burgers with bacon slices (I used a toothpick to make sure the bacon didn’t unwrap).

 

I grilled the burgers, started out with low direct heat, then moving them to high indirect heat, until they looked done all the way to the top of each burger.
