There is nothing like a good juicy burger. I love experimenting with different ways to make a burger. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good cheeseburger with all the fixings but coming up with new and unique ways to enjoy a burger is right up my alley! These burgers are loaded with amazing flavor with the caramelized onions and smoked gouda. Pairing them with the hot pepper bacon jam, crunchy arugula and pickled red onion takes them to a level of flavor that is OFF THE CHARTS!
