Little Owl'S Bacon Cheeseburger

• 1 pound ground beef brisket
• 1 pound ground short rib
• (or 2lbs 85% Ground Beef)
• 4 slices American cheese
• 8 slices precooked bacon
• 4 homemade buns
• Pickles
• 1 1/2 tablespoons madras curry powder
• 1 1/2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
• Salt
• Pepper

1. In a small bowl, mix curry powder, cayenne, 1/2 tablespoon cracked black pepper and 1 1/2 tablespoons sea salt until combined; set aside.
2. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium high heat.
3. In a large mixing bowl, mix brisket and short rib until blended; season with salt and pepper. Separate into four balls and flatten into 3/4-inch thick patties. Season both sides of each patty with spice mixture.
4. Place patties on hot grill or grill pan, cooking for approximately three minutes per side for medium-rare, four minutes per side for medium; top burgers with 2 slices bacon and cover with cheese during the last minute of cooking. Grill buns, turning over once with tongs, until toasted.
5. We suggest serving with mustard and pickles.
