Some burgers are all about the toppings. This one celebrates the inside: crisp bacon, melted cheese and mouthwatering juiciness, thanks to ranch dressing.

I also added grilled onions to the burger and used sharp cheddar cheese and turkey bacon. It's kind of hard to keep the patties together but once you flip them they stick pretty good. Really yummy!

This was a tasty twist on regular grilled burgers. My family really enjoyed them. I used colby/jack cheese on some and provolone on the others. I had to make extra sauce for just four burgers and next time I would use a bit more than a Tablespoon of filling in each one.

If I had told my son there was ranch dressing in these burgers he would never have eaten them. I didn't tell him and he LOVED them! I actually used a bacon ranch dressing since that was what I had on hand. Delicious! Very moist. I will definitely be making these burgers again!

These were very good!! When my husband bit into the burger he was pleasantly surprised by the bacon and cheese. The ranch gives the meat a wonderful flavor. I will definitely be making these again.
