Double Bacon Cheddar Smokehouse Burger

I hope everyone is enjoying the first full day of college football and the Labor Day weekend! We are going to be watching tons of football and grilling out all weekend. This burger is most definitely on the menu. It has amazing flavor and is packed full of yummy bacon. Bacon is not only on top of this burger, it is ground up inside the burger too! Bacon overload!

These burgers tasted incredible. They were better than most burgers we eat out. We loved all the bacon and the smokey BBQ sauce. You could really kick this up and use the maple bacon from the burger I posted earlier this week. This recipe makes 6 burgers. We grilled three a few weeks ago and are grill the remaining burgers tonight. I can't wait!
