6 slices smoked bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 yellow onions
1 1/2 lbs ground sirloin
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 tablespoon grill seasoning (like McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning)
4 crusty kaiser rolls, split
4 slices smoked gouda cheese
1/4 cup steak sauce (like A1)

1
In large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from pan and drain on paper towel lined plate.
2
Discard all but about 1 T. of the bacon drippings.
3
Chop 1/4 of an onion finely, then slice the other 1 3/4 onions.
4
Sweat the chopped onion in the reserved bacon drippings for 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan and combine with the bacon.
5
Coat pan with the olive oil and drop in the sliced onions. Let sweat until soft and slightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove and place in bowl; keep warm.
6
While the onions are sweating, combine the sirloin, Worcestershire, hot sauce, grill seasoning, and the bacon/onion mixture. Form into 4 equal-sized patties.
7
Cook burgers, covered, in skillet, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare and 6 minutes per side for medium-well.
8
Place a slice of cheese on each burger and cover over low heat to melt the cheese.
9
Stir steak sauce into the cooked sliced onions.
10
Toast the buns if desired.
11
Serve burgers with the smothered onions on a toasted bun.
12
*NOTE* I served these without the buns and enjoyed them that way also. Just topped the burgers with the smothered onions and left the bun out of the equation.
