Ingredients

1 Cup Bacon Pieces

1/2 Cup Green onion Sliced

1/2 Cup Beef broth

American cheese

1 tablespoon Kosher Salt

2 teaspoon Ground black pepper

3 pounds Ground chuck

2 Eggs

2 cups White bread 8 slices


Directions

1 Mix bacon, American cheese and sliced green onions in a bowl. Set aside. 2 Place white bread and beef broth in a large mixing bowl. Work together until bread has absorbed all of broth and is soft. Add salt, pepper, ground beef and eggs, then blend together using your hands. Chill mixture well. 3 Divide meat mixture into 8 equal portions. Work each potion into a firm ball, and place between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Using your hands, flatten ball out into an oval. Refrigerate until ready to cook. 4 Preheat oven to 350*F. In a large skillet on medium high heat, cook two or three steaks 3 minutes on each side. Remove and place on a foil-lined baking sheet. 5 Distribute cheese mixture evenly among cooked steaks. Place steaks in oven about 2 minutes to melt cheese topping.

Made this for my family this week. It is delicious! The portions are large, but we just cut them in half. Leftovers, once heated in microwave, tasted exactly like original serving. Very happy I found this recipe!
