Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 leaves lettuce
• 2 hamburger buns, split
• 2 slices Cheddar cheese
• 2 teaspoons steak seasoning (such as Montreal Steak Seasoning®)
• 1 tablespoon bourbon (such as Four Roses®)
• 2 slices cooked bacon, cut into halves
• 2 tomato slices
• 0.5 pound lean ground beef
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic salt

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Mix ground beef, bourbon, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, steak seasoning, and garlic salt in a bowl; divide and shape into 2 patties.

Step 3

Cook on the preheated grill for about 5 minutes; turn, top each burger with bacon and Cheddar cheese, and continue cooking until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 5 minutes more for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Serve on split buns topped with tomato and lettuce.
