By MIO Coalition June 2024

Ingredients

1 pound extra-sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1 cup mayonnaise
1 (4-ounce) jar diced pimentos, drained
1 pound ground sirloin
1 pound ground chuck
1 teaspoon Daddy Hinkle’s cracked pepper and sea salt seasoning
2 tablespoons Daddy Hinkle’s meat marinade, sauce
6-8 Braum’s hamburger buns
½ stick or ¼ cup Braum’s butter, softened
1/2 pound Bar-S bacon, cooked
Garnish: green leaf lettuce, sliced tomato, sliced red onion

Directions

In a medium bowl, mix together grated cheese, mayonnaise and pimentos. Add more mayonnaise if necessary to make it creamy. Cover, and store in refrigerator. In a large bowl, combine sirloin, chuck and Daddy Hinkle’s. Shape into 6 to 8 patties, and make an indentation with your thumb into each patty. Preheat grill to high. Lower heat to medium-high, and grill burgers 4-6 minutes on each side, depending on how you like your burgers cooked. During last minute of cooking, top each burger with a scoop of pimento cheese. Remove from grill, and set aside. Butter buns and warm on grill. Assemble burgers, topping with bacon and garnishes.
