Last night, I started making the last of my October Dream Dinners meals. I was really glad I had defrosted this meal because I had been pretty hungry for burgers. I started by preheating the oven and putting the fries in the oven for 30 minutes. I waited for a little bit and then started on the burgers. I heated up the grill pan on the stovetop over high heat. Meanwhile, I mixed the bacon mixture with the ground beef and formed 3 patties. I put the burgers on the grill pan and set my timer for 5 minutes. The burger was near impossible to flip and definitely made a mess of the pan. I cooked it about 4 minutes on the other side. After the burgers had cooked on both sides, I put the buns in the oven for a few minutes while I let the cheddar and Gorgonzola cheeses melt on the burgers. Once everything was cooked, dinner was ready. I put the burgers on buns and drizzled them with bbq sauce and french fried onions. Despite being a bit messy, the burgers were really tasty and had so many different flavors. The fries were crispy and well seasoned. Overall, I really liked this meal and would make it again. However, I am done trying to make burgers in my grill pan. Next time, I will either use the broiler or a skillet. The third burger fell apart so I made it into nachos for lunch today. With the addition of tortilla chips, bbq sauce, and ranch, Texas Roadhouse Nachos were a great idea!
