Bacon-Wrapped Onion Ring Burgers

Slice the onion into thick rings. Select two concentric rings for each onion ring you plan to make.

Cut the Colby cheese into strips and place them in the gap between the two onion rings.

Tightly wrap the stuffed onion ring with bacon, covering it completely.

Set up a grill for indirect heat at 350°F. Add a chunk of hickory wood for smoke flavor.

Place the bacon-wrapped onion rings on the grill and cook for about 40 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy.

While the rings cook, prepare the burger sauce. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, whole grain mustard, sweet relish, and truffle hot sauce. Mix until well combined.

Form the ground chuck into patties. Season both sides generously with seasoned salt.

Cook the patties on a hot griddle or flat-top for about 5 minutes per side.

If using, add the leftover shredded beef rib to the griddle to heat through while the burgers cook.

After flipping the patties, top each with a slice of cheddar cheese and allow it to melt.

Toast the burger buns on the griddle.

To assemble, spread the prepared sauce on both the top and bottom toasted buns.

Place a cheeseburger patty on the bottom bun, followed by a crispy bacon-wrapped onion ring.

Fill the center of the onion ring with the warm shredded beef rib.

Place the top bun on the burger, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately.
