Ingredients:

  • 1 Pre Brands 85% Lean Ground Beef
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp high heat oil
  • 1/2 cup favorite bbq sauce, plus 1/4 cup separated
  • 1 yellow onion, sliced thinly 
  • 3 pretzel buns
  • 1/2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles
  • 6 pieces of maple bacon

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 500º degrees. Heat one zone to high heat and one zone to medium heat. Place a cast-iron or oven-safe skillet in the medium heat zone. 
  2. While preheating, mix beef in a medium bowl with 1/2 cup bbq sauce. Mix until no longer wet, it might be a bit sticky. Form into 3 - 1/3 lb patties.
  3. Flatten on a cutting board. Scoop a few spoonfuls of cheese into the center of each one. Fold the edges of patties toward the center of the patty and press down on the cheese.
  4. Salt and oil both sides of patties, then place on high heat zone of the grill. Cook for 3 minutes on each side. 
  5. Place the bacon on a piece of foil and cook alongside the burgers. Flip after 3 minutes. Remove with burgers.
  6. Heat 1 tsp of oil in a skillet. Sauteé onions while burgers cook. When they are soft, add the additional 1/4 c. bbq sauce. Stir and set aside. 
  7. Spread butter on both sides of pretzel buns. Toast on low heat zone while the meat finishes cooking. 
  8. Assemble burger: bun, bacon, burger, onions. Add more bbq sauce or blue cheese if you'd like. Enjoy!

    "Real talk...since my cancer was environmental and not hereditary I am super conscious of what goes into my body, especially protein. Post chemo left my body super low in iron so steak remains in my diet. I found Pre a few months ago and it’s the only meat I buy. Grass-fed, no added hormones and most importantly affordable. Eat better for your body people!"

    "Your steaks, especially the sirloin, ribeye, and filet mignon are absolutely delicious. Wasn’t sure how these cuts would taste grilled but they taste just as good if not better than cuts I’ve had a top notch steakhouses."

    Mario

    "When our son was diagnosed with a rare medical disorder, it meant that we would have to change our diet as a family. Because his metabolism doesn’t function like a typical person’s, we have to be very careful about what we feed him. One of the changes we made was to use more grass-fed and finished beef in our cooking. We decided to give Pre a try, and we are so happy with the quality and taste of the meat. Buying from Pre gives us peace of mind and we feel confident knowing that we are using a product in the top of its class."

    Lindsay

    "This beef is AMAZING! I'm from Wisconsin so a huge steak lover. This is some of the best beef, I've experienced and I've had beef around the world. It's a must try, and you'll understand what I mean."

    Tracy

    "My husband and I loved having these filets once a week. I sear both sides and "in-between" in a very hot small Lodge cast iron skillet. I use a spatter guard. Then I place the skillet in a 400 degree oven for between 2min. 10-20 seconds. Perfect medium minus filets. My mouth is watering as I write this!!"

    Mary M.

    "These steaks and other Pre products have been a staple in our home for over a year now and we continue to be fully satisfied with their consistently good quality and flavor. They are the perfect size, are delicious and easy to cook. Add Pre’s amazing customer service to it and you end up with an exceptional overall product!"

    K.G.

    "Best steak I've had in a long time. I love being able to order grass fed beef that is way better than I can find in grocery stores. Really tastes great on the grill . I'm addicted to it now."

    Jeff S.

    "First time trying the 10 Pack New York Strips. Oh My! had an unexpectedly warm day and whipped out the grill. Enough said. Delish !!!! Steaks are equally cut making cooking much easier for the desired temp."
