Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound ground beef sirloin
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
8 slices applewood-smoked bacon
1 ½ cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (such as Tillamook®)
1 cup peanut butter
1 tablespoon maple syrup
6 hamburger buns
6 leaves lettuce
2 tomatoes, sliced

Steps:

  • Mix ground beef, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl until evenly blended. Form beef mixture into 6 4-inch wide patties. Transfer patties to a large plate and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until patties are slightly firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
  • Cook beef patties on preheated grill until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over patties about a minute before they are done.
  • Mix peanut butter and maple syrup in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat peanut butter mixture in the microwave until slightly runny, about 25 seconds. Stir again.
  • Spread peanut butter mixture over hamburger buns and top with beef patties, lettuce, tomatoes, and bacon.
