Ingredients

4
slices bacon
1/2
onion, chopped
2
cloves garlic, minced
1 lb.
ground beef
1
tube refrigerated biscuit dough
2
dill pickles, chopped
1 cup
shredded Cheddar
yellow mustard
4 Tbsp.
butter, melted
sesame seeds
Ketchup, for serving

Directions

1. Step 1Preheat oven to 375° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Step 2In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. Remove bacon strips but reserve 2 tablespoons of fat in the skillet. Chop bacon.
3. Step 3Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, then add ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until no longer pink, 5-6 minutes. Drain fat.
4. Step 4Flatten each biscuit round to about 1/4” thickness. Top each round of dough with cooked ground beef, pickles, mustard, cooked bacon, and cheese. Pinch the edges together to create a ball. (It will look like a dumpling!)
5. Step 5Place the burger bombs seam side-down on the baking sheet. Brush the tops of the dough with melted butter, then sprinkle with sesame seeds.
6. Step 6Bake until the biscuits are golden and cooked through, about 20 minutes. Serve with ketchup.
