Preparation
- 1. Ask a grown-up to prepare the grill.
- 2. Prepare the burger patty: Place butter in a big microwave-safe
bowl. Cover with wax paper, and microwave at HIGH 30 seconds or until
butter melts. Stir in onion. Cover and microwave at HIGH 2 more minutes
or until onion is tender. Cool. Add beef, oats, egg, 1/4 cup barbecue
sauce, salt, and pepper; mix well. Turn beef mixture out onto a big
piece of aluminum foil, and shape into a 9-inch patty.
- 3. Grill patty, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350°
to 400°) 8 minutes on each side or until no longer pink, using a wide
spatula to turn. Arrange bacon and cheese on patty the last 2 minutes of
cooking.
- 4. Assemble the burger: Cut loaf of bread in half horizontally.
Spread 1/4 cup barbecue sauce over cut side of bottom half of bread.
Arrange lettuce over barbecue sauce. Top with burger, tomato slices, and
pickles. Cut burger into wedges to serve.
