Inside Out Burgers

Ingredients
5 slices bacon, chopped
extra virgin olive oil to drizzle on the pan/burgers
1 1/3 ground sirloin (pay a little extra and get the sirloin instead of hamburger, it's worth it)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (we like Lee & Perrins
1 teaspoon Montreal Seasoning (it's made by McCormick)
1/2 LB extra sharp cheddar, crumbled

Directions
Preheat grill pan over high heat. In a medium pan brown bacon over medium high heat until crisp, drain and set aside to cool. Combine meat with Worcestershire sauce and Montreal seasoning. Divide meat into 4 equal parts. Take 1/4 in you hand and make a well in it, pile in bacon and cheese and form the burger around it. Make sure the cheese and bacon is compactly covered in ground sirloin. Drizzle with oil (I suggest you drizzle the pan as well) and place on hot grill pan. Cook 2 minutes on high, then reduce heat and cook thoroughly, turning occasionally. Let rest for a few minutes, then eat!
