🥓🧀 Carnivore Bacon Jam Grilled Cheeseburgers

A high-fat, high-flavor burger topped with savory bacon jam and melty cheese — no buns, no carbs, all flavor.

✅ Ingredients:

For the Burgers:

• 1½ lbs ground beef (80/20 or fattier for carnivore)

• Salt to taste

• Butter or tallow for grilling

• 4 slices cheddar, provolone, or your cheese of choice (optional)

For the Bacon Jam:

• ½ lb bacon, chopped

• 2 tbsp beef tallow or bacon grease

• 1–2 tbsp water or bone broth (optional for texture)

• Pinch of salt (optional — taste first)

• (Optional for relaxed carnivore: 1 tbsp finely diced onion or shallot)

🔪 Instructions:

🔥 Step 1: Make the Bacon Jam

1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook chopped bacon until crispy.

2. Remove bacon bits and set aside. Leave about 2 tbsp fat in the pan.

3. (Optional) If using onion, sauté it in the bacon fat until caramelized.

4. Return bacon to the pan. Add a bit of bone broth or water and simmer on low for 5–10 minutes, stirring often until it becomes thick and jammy.

5. Let cool slightly. Store extras in the fridge.

🍔 Step 2: Make the Burgers

1. Form beef into 3–4 patties. Season lightly with salt.

2. Heat butter or tallow in a skillet or grill on high.

3. Cook burgers 3–4 minutes per side or to your desired doneness.

4. In the last minute, top with cheese (if using) and let it melt.

🥓🧀 Step 3: Assemble & Serve

1. Place cooked patties on a plate (or use a carnivore-friendly egg wrap or cheese crisp as a “bun”).

2. Top generously with warm bacon jam.

3. Serve hot and enjoy the meaty, cheesy indulgence!
