If we're entirely honest, we haven't had to make a lot of changes to this recipe - just added a few bits and pieces in. But what you have here is a proper sloppy burger that'll make a right mess of your front, but that's just fine because it tastes so good. Plus: we've added more bacon into the recipe this time, and that's never a bad thing.
We've also cooked the cheese straight into the sauce because, and you'll need to trust me, it makes the dish absolutely perfect.
Calorie counts, like my level of current partners, are approximate.
Ingredients
- four brioche buns - you can use normal buns if you want, but why would you
- 400g lean beef mince
- teaspoon of garlic paste
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 carton of passata
- 4 tbsp of that sweet, lurid yellow American mustard
- 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
- 8 rashers of bacon
- 125ml beef stock
- 100g of reduced fat extra mature cheese, grated
Instructions
- cook off your bacon, setting aside half for the burgers at the end and chopping the rest into small pieces
- fry off your onion until golden, add the garlic and cook for a minute or two more, then add the beef mince and cook until browned and lovely
- add the bacon, passata, stock, mustard and Worcestershire sauce, stir, and allow to simmer right down and thicken up
- once nearly done, tip all that cheese in and stir through, and cook until gloopy
- slice your buns, add the cooked bacon, then pour the mince on top
You could serve this with chips. But then you could just do a lot of things if you tried.
Notes
Recipe
- a tin of chopped tomatoes would be fine here, as long as you let everything break down and simmer
- although we didn't add them, chopped gherkins would also be a bloody winner

Which is handy, because see, there was this emperor, and he asks this shepherd's boy, "how many seconds in eternity?" and the shepherd's boy says, "there's this mountain of pure diamond. It takes an hour to climb it, and an hour to go around it! Every hundred years, a little bird comes and sharpens its beak on the diamond mountain. And when the entire mountain is chiselled away, the first second of eternity will have passed" You must think that's a hell of a long time, but I don't care, that bloody sparrow owes me a fiver and he's gonna be ages yet. Sick of this.
