These burgers were very moist and delicious. Be careful when seasoning the ground beef. The bacon has all the salt you'll need.

I really like this and so did my husband. My daughter has made this twice and her little 4 year old loves this, The burgers are really juicy even if you just yuse the ranch dressing and not the bacon. I have been trying alot. Next is the Dream Pineapple Upside Down Cake.

These burgers are delicious. They do kind of fall apart on the George Foreman grill.

Very good! I agree, they do fall apart kinda easy. I used the George Foreman too so maybe that was the problem. Gonna keep trying though! My 2 year old loved them!

My family really liked this. Next time I will not use my George Foreman grill as they tried to fall apart. Also, I will use dry Ranch drsg mix.

I made this for my husband, who really liked it, but I'm not sure I would make it again simply cuz it got kind of messy! I used my George Foreman & like others, it was kind of leaky. I used 1/2 lb extra lean ground beef mixed with 1 tbsp fat free ranch. I thought I'd sealed the 2 patties nice & tight, but if I make this again, I'm going to make sure the edges are bulletproof! But he loved the taste so I hope to get this right!
