HULK BURGERS

This is not the most descriptive of recipe titles but to be quite honest with you, if I were to try and name this burger utilising the ingredients within this absolute mammouth it would never go through a search engine. This one literally came to me one day when I sat and thought about all the tastes that I am a fan of and how it could then be constructed into a vehicle to be grilled and yammed into my greedy little face. So let us go through the key ingredients to make this oozy meaty beast:

-a good mince with a high fat content to ensure that the burger fat is nicely dripping down one's arms from and the first bite

-cream cheese to produce an oozy interior

-cheddar to add sharpness and depth

-streaky bacon, because its bacon and needs no explanation

And if you're not dribbling right now then you may just need your head checking.
