Bigfoot Eats: The Ultimate Double Wagyu Bacon Burger

Some burgers are meant to be eaten.

Others are meant to be experienced.

For this episode of Bigfoot Eats, we decided there was absolutely no reason to show restraint. We’re talking Wagyu beef, bacon, sautéed onions, two kinds of cheese, mayo, and a pretzel bagel bun stacked into one ridiculously good double burger.

This isn’t your average backyard cheeseburger.

This thing is a BEAST.

Building the Wagyu Beast

It all starts with the beef.

We used Wagyu beef to make two juicy burger patties and seasoned them with Bigfoot BBQ Rubs before hitting the heat. Wagyu already brings an incredible amount of richness and beefy flavor to the table, so the goal isn’t to cover it up — it’s to make it even better.

Get a good sear on those patties and let that Wagyu fat do its thing.

Then comes the cheese.

Because apparently one cheese wasn't enough.

We stacked this burger with two different cheeses, giving you layers of creamy, melty goodness between those Wagyu patties.

Bacon Makes Everything Better

Next up: BACON.

Cook it until it has that perfect balance of crispy edges and a little chew. You want enough texture to stand up against the juicy beef without turning the burger into a fight.

And while you've got the heat going, throw some sliced onions into the pan.

Slowly sauté them until they're soft, golden and packed with flavor. Those onions add a little sweetness that cuts through all the richness from the Wagyu, bacon and cheese.

Don't Forget the Bun

A burger this ridiculous deserves something better than a basic hamburger bun.

Enter the pretzel bagel bun.

It's chewy. It's substantial. It's got that slightly salty pretzel flavor. And most importantly, it can actually hold this monster together.

Toast it up before assembling the burger. That little bit of crunch makes a HUGE difference.

Stack the Legend

Now it's time to put this thing together.

Start with your toasted pretzel bagel bun and a generous layer of mayo. Then start stacking:

Wagyu burger patty
Melted cheese
Second Wagyu burger patty
More melted cheese
Crispy bacon
Sautéed onions
Another hit of mayo
Pretzel bagel bun

Then stand back and admire what you've created.

You've got buttery Wagyu beef, smoky bacon, gooey cheese, sweet sautéed onions, creamy mayo and that salty, chewy pretzel bagel bun all working together.

It's messy.

It's excessive.

It's absolutely worth it.
