These gourmet burger recipes are topped with everything from bacon to caramelized onions, onion ring toppers, aioli sauces, spicy pickles and apples and vegetables. The possibilities are endless (and delicious!) 

A great burger starts with a the perfect patty. While some of these creations have a special blend of meat and spices, others have nothing but quality ground beef.

Here are a few tips for the best gourmet burger recipes: 

• Use quality ground beef.
• Don’t overwork the meat, it can make it tough.
• Never press down on the patty while you are cooking it, you’ll press out all the juices. 
• Allow your burger to rest before serving. 
• Use a bun that can handle the toppings you plan to use.

Also keep in mind that any of these creations can be made into a chicken burger!
