These Bacon Cheeseburger Meatballs are packed with flavor and easy to prepare. Made with ground beef, crispy bacon, and gooey cheese, they are perfect for parties or a quick dinner.

  • Total Time: 2 hours
  • Yield: 9 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb. lean ground beef
  • 2 tsp. steak seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp. fresh-ground black pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 6 slices bacon, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup chopped dill pickle
  • 4 oz. swiss cheese, cut into very small cubes
  • olive oil for brushing meatballs

Instructions

  1. Crumble the beef into a bowl, sprinkle with steak seasoning and black pepper, and add the egg.
  2. Crisp and crumble the bacon, dice the dill pickles, and cut cheese into small cubes.
  3. Combine the crumbled bacon, diced pickles, and cheese cubes with the ground beef, mixing gently to avoid tough meatballs.
  4. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop out the mixture and form into meatballs, tucking cheese cubes inside each one.
  5. Place meatballs on a baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes to help maintain their shape while grilling.
  6. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, and place a grilling pan on the grates to heat up.
  7. Brush meatballs with olive oil on both sides to prevent sticking, then place them on the grilling pan.
  8. Cook meatballs, turning every 2 minutes until browned on all sides, checking for doneness after 15 minutes.
  9. Ensure the internal temperature reaches at least 160F/102C by using an instant-read meat thermometer or cutting one open.
  10. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce if desired.
  11. These meatballs reheat well, consider doubling the recipe for leftovers.

Notes

Steak seasoning can vary; adjust according to taste.
For a different flavor, use your favorite cheese instead of Swiss.
Chilling the meatballs is crucial to keep them from falling apart on the grill.
