Ingredients

• 1 lb extra-lean (at least 90%) ground beef
• 1/4 cup plain bread crumbs
• 3 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 teaspoon onion salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Step 1

Heat closed medium-size contact grill for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, in large bowl, mix all ingredients except bacon. On work surface, pat mixture into 7-inch square. Cut into 4 (3 1/2-inch) squares.

When grill is heated, place beef squares on grill. Top each square with 2 half-slices bacon. Close grill; cook 6 to 10 minutes or until squares are thoroughly cooked and no longer pink in center and bacon is browned.
