BBQ Bacon Burgers

Serves 4 (I ended up making 6 burgers and just adjusted the ingredients)

1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup BBQ sauce
4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
1-1/2 teaspoons dried minced onion
1-1/2 teaspoons steak seasoning
1 pound ground beef
4 slices Swiss cheese (or any other type you prefer)
4 hamburger buns, split
Lettuce leaves and tomato slices, optional

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and BBQ sauce. In another bowl, combine the bacon, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise mixture, onion and steak seasoning. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into four patties.

Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 160 deg and juices run clear. Top with cheese. Cover and cook 1-2 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Spread remaining mayonnaise mixture over buns. Top each with a burger, lettuce and tomato.
