Bits of bacon flavor ground beef burgers and creamy pimento cheese is the crowning glory on top of Burgers With Pimento Cheese. A taste of the south is in every bite of these homemade burgers.
Burgers With Pimento Cheese
Burgers With Pimento Cheese are elevated to a new level when bits of bacon are stirred into the ground beef mixture.
Chopped bacon cooks inside the burgers and add a heavenly extra flavor to the ground beef as the burgers grill.
And then even more bacon is added on top of the burgers.
You can never have too much bacon, in my opinion!
Homemade pimento cheese is the best pimento cheese, but if you are short on time you can easily use a premade pimento cheese.
I love an egg twist rolls or brioche bun, for my burger because they are soft and so flavorful.
These hamburgers will be a hit at your next cookout and you will definitely impress your guests with the flavors and textures of these cheeseburgers.
I grilled my burgers but you can always cook them in a cast iron skillet on your stove top too.
Once you try these Bacon Burgers With Pimento Cheese you’ll never go back to plain burgers again.
