Assemble the Bacon Avocado Cheeseburgers

How to Make Ahead & Store Leftovers
One bite of this bacon avocado burger recipe, and you won’t dare let another go to waste. Now you can whip up juicy burgers in a snap and store them like a pro—all with one simple guide.
Make ahead: To make this burger recipe ahead of time, prepare your guacamole, turkey bacon, and ground beef mixture, and store each in a separate airtight container. Keep these ingredients in the fridge for up to one day, and only move your hamburger patties to the freezer 30 minutes before grilling. Storage: When storing your guacamole bacon burgers, place each ingredient in its own airtight container. When ready to eat, reheat and assemble them one by one. Reheat: To reheat your guacamole bacon burgers, reheat the meat in a low heat oven (300 degrees F for 7-10 minutes) or a skillet. Once warm, assemble the rest of your burger using the remaining ingredients.

A simple salad: Lighten up your summer menu by serving your bacon avocado cheeseburger alongside some of my fresh salads. These salads will satisfy your tastebuds, from my Mexican Street Corn to colorful Cowboy Caviar. Vegetable Sides: Put a healthy spin on your meal by preparing a veggie-packed side dish. Crisp, tender, and always dippable, Green Bean Fries and Crispy Breaded Eggplant are two of my favorites.
Put a thumbprint in the burger: This tip is one of Bobby Flay’s tricks to make the best burgers – When placed on the grill, beef patties tend to bulge in the center, leading to unevenly cooked meat. Though you may want to fix misshapen burgers by pressing down on them with a spatula, this solution can lead to dry, flavorless meat. For best results, then, I recommend creating an indentation in the center of your uncooked beef patties using your thumb or a small, flat-bottomed ramekin. As the beef expands, the dent will disappear, and you’ll have perfectly shaped guacamole burgers. Use good bread: I think a lot of people overlook the importance of the bun when making a burger. To me, the bun you use is just as important as the meat. If you have the time, I highly recommend making a batch of my homemade brioche buns recipe. If not, head on over to your local bakery to pick up burger buns that actually taste good. Double the recipe: Need more burgers on the grill? You can easily double this guacamole burger recipe to feed a crowd. Change it up: I know there is already quite a bit happening with this burger, but if you have the time I highly recommend making a batch of caramelized onions as a topping to take it to a whole other level. Degree of doneness: I know a lot of people prefer a burger that is cooked either medium-rare or medium. However, I think it is important to mention that both CDC and USDA recommend consumers cook ground beef to 160 degrees F to kill E.coli germs rapidly.
