A mouthwatering twist on the classic burger, combining savory flavors of caramelized onions, crispy bacon, and gooey Havarti cheese between buttery toasted sourdough bread.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 patties Patties Original BUBBA burger
- 8 slices Sourdough Bread Use fresh sourdough for best flavor
- 12 oz Havarti Cheese Melted over the patties
- 1/2 cup Quick Caramelized Onions Caramelized to enhance sweetness
- 1/2 cup Pre-Cooked Bacon Crumbles Crispy for added texture
- 2 tbsp Salted Butter For toasting the bread
Instructions
Cooking the Burgers
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
- Place the BUBBA burgers in the skillet and pan fry them for about 5-7 minutes on each side, ensuring they reach an internal temperature of 160°F.
Building the Sandwiches
- Lay out four slices of sourdough bread on a cutting board.
- Top each slice with half of the Havarti cheese, followed by portions of the caramelized onions and bacon.
- Place a cooked burger on top of the layers before adding the remaining cheese and final slices of bread.
Grilling the Sandwiches
- Butter the exterior of the sandwiches generously.
- Cook the sandwiches in the skillet or on a flat top for a few minutes on each side until the bread is golden-brown and the cheese is melty.
- Remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them rest for about 1 minute before serving.
Notes
For best results, don't rush the caramelization of the onions. You can freeze the sandwiches for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven for optimal texture.
