It's not a secret that I have two freezers full of ground meat in my garage. While I'm always on the lookout for new ground beef recipes, there's really nothing like a good burger for lunch or dinner. This easy crack burger recipe takes those burgers up a juicy notch.

The burger patties are seasoned with all those ingredients that qualify for "crack recipe" status. You only need five ingredients to make these flavor-packed beef burger patties. Here is your short shopping list: ground beef, sour cream, dry ranch seasoning, bacon and cheddar cheese. The ingredients are mixed together, shaped into patties and cooked to your desired doneness. The gluten-free patties can be cooked on an outdoor grill, indoor grill, or in a grill pan or skillet.

Put these cheesy ranch-flavored ground beef patties on hamburger buns with your favorite toppings. I like mayonnaise, mustard, lettuce, tomato, red onion, avocado and jalapenos. Serve these cheeseburgers for lunch or dinner with your favorite side dishes. What are your favorite burger toppings?

Recipe Notes

Use whatever cheese you like for these beef patties.

I use a mixture of ground venison and beef brisket for my patties.

Make a plate of burger toppings and let everyone make their own.

The cooking time will depend on how thick you make the burgers.

I chose not to include bacon in my patties.

Store any leftover patties in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.

Here's how to make it:

Put the ground beef, sour cream, ranch seasoning, crumbled bacon and cheese into a mixing bowl. Season with black pepper, if desired.
Mix until combined.
Shape into four patties.
Cook the burgers on a grill, in a grill pan or in a skillet until cooked to desired doneness.
Assemble burgers with your favorite burger toppings.
