Preparation
Step 1
Prepare the ingredients. Choose any ground meat you prefer, such as pork, beef or a mixture of different meats. You can use ready-made ground meat or prepare it yourself by chopping the meat in a blender or passing it through a meat grinder.
Step 2
Cut the bacon into small pieces. Use either raw smoked or cooked smoked bacon, depending on your preference.
Step 3
Cut the cheese into small cubes or grate it. You can use hard, semi-hard or soft cheese, such as mozzarella, as long as it is good-quality and flavorful.
Step 4
Combine the ground meat, bacon, cheese, vegetable oil and spices in a bowl. Knead the mixture thoroughly until smooth and evenly combined. For a finer texture, you can blend the ground meat, cheese and bacon briefly in a food processor.
Step 5
Shape the mixture into even, round patties. This amount makes approximately 6 patties.
Step 6
Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add a little oil if desired, although the fat released from the meat and bacon may be sufficient. Cook the patties for approximately 4–5 minutes on each side, until golden and cooked through. The exact cooking time will depend on your stove, pan and the thickness of the patties.
Step 7
Serve the patties with any preferred side dish or use them to make homemade burgers. Place 1–2 lettuce leaves on the bottom half of each burger bun, add a patty and top with ketchup and mustard. Add tomato and pickled cucumber slices, cover with the top half of the bun and serve immediately.
