Pure Carnivore Burger Recipe (No Onion)
This version sticks strictly to animal-based ingredients—beef, bacon, eggs, and cheese (if you choose)—to create a burger that’s juicy, flavorful, and 100% carnivore.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 for juicy patties)
- 4 slices of bacon
- 1 egg (optional, for richness and binding)
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper (optional)
- 1 tbsp animal fat (butter, tallow, or lard) for cooking
- Optional: Animal-based cheese slices (cheddar, Swiss, etc.)
Instructions:
1. Cook the Bacon: Fry the bacon in a pan over medium heat until crispy. Once done, set it aside to cool. Then, chop it into small pieces. This crispy bacon will add extra flavor and richness to your burger.
2. Prepare the Burger Patties: In a bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped bacon, salt, and pepper. If you want an extra rich and juicy burger, you can add an egg to the mixture, but it’s optional. Mix everything gently, being careful not to overwork the meat. Form the mixture into 3-4 patties, depending on how thick you want them.
3. Preheat Your Griddle or Pan: Heat your griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add your choice of animal fat (butter, tallow, or lard) to prevent sticking and add more flavor.
4. Cook the Patties: Place the patties on the hot griddle or pan. Press them down slightly for a smash burger style, which gives that crispy exterior. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until the edges are golden and crispy. Flip the patties and cook for another 2-3 minutes until they reach your preferred doneness.
5. Add Cheese (Optional): If you’re using cheese, add a slice to each patty about 1 minute before removing the burger from the pan, allowing it to melt.
6. Serve and Enjoy: Once your patties are cooked, serve them on their own (no buns for a true carnivore experience) or in a bowl with extra bacon or cheese on top. You can pair with some additional carnivore-friendly sides, like scrambled eggs or extra crispy bacon.
Now you’ve got a Pure Carnivore Burger that’s packed with flavor and all animal products! Whether you’re making this for lunch or dinner, it’s a satisfying, meaty masterpiece. Enjoy! 🍔🔥
