# Steps:
01 -
In a large bowl, combine ground chuck, sour cream, ranch dressing mix, crumbled turkey bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat to avoid tough burgers.
02 -
Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and shape into patties of uniform thickness. Create a slight dimple in the center of each patty to prevent bulging during cooking. Wet hands with cold water to prevent sticking if necessary.
03 -
Cook patties over medium heat to desired doneness. For medium-rare, aim for 57°C internal temperature; medium 60-63°C; well-done 71°C. Handle gently when flipping to preserve moisture and avoid pressing down during cooking.
04 -
Allow patties to rest briefly before assembling. Place each patty on a hamburger bun and garnish with lettuce, tomato, mustard, and mayonnaise according to preference. Consider toasting buns for enhanced texture and flavor.
# Notes:
01 -
The sour cream and cheese in this mixture create exceptionally moist and flavorful burgers.
02 -
For best results, avoid overmixing the meat mixture which can result in dense, tough patties.
