You'll also need:
Directions
- Heat a gas grill to high, or heat coals in a charcoal grill until they glow bright orange and ash over.
Meanwhile, make the burger sauce by combining the mayo, ranch, and blue cheese crumbles. Mix with a spoon until just combined and set aside.
- Form the ground beef into a burger-shaped patty. Season the outside of the burger well with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Brush the grill grate with a bit of Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil, or spray with Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Spray.
Grill the burger until golden brown and slightly charred on the first side, about 3 minutes.
Flip the burger over and cook on the other side for 3 minutes for medium rare. For medium, cook the burger on the second side for 4 minutes. For medium-well to well, cook the burger on the second side for 5 minutes.
Add the cheese slice, and allow to cook for another 1 minute.
- Remove burger from the grill, and place on top of a few lettuce leaves. Add the tomato slice, bacon slices, and spoon on a bit of Primal Kitchen Ketchup. Spoon on blue cheese sauce, then add a couple more lettuce leaves.
- Wrap the bottom half of the burger with parchment paper to ensure it stays together when you bite into it.

Sure, you could make a regular ol' cheeseburger... or you could dial the flavor up to 10 with our red, white, and blue (cheese) bacon burger. Sorry drive-thru burgers, this beauty is in a league of it's own.
Topped with two types of cheese, Primal Kitchen Ketchup and Mayo, and fresh tomato, this lettuce-wrapped masterpiece is basically a meal-in-one. And did we mention bacon? Bacon is the cherry on top. Bring a napkin, because it's about to get messy—in the best possible way!
