paleo bacon burger reviews
I got a lot of reviews on these burgers. Here are some of my favorites:
“It makes me want to cry, it’s so good. All the flavors are like, bam!”
“I will pay $36,000 for one of those burgers!”
“The burger is SO moist! And that fresh basilπ.”
Bacon. Avocado. Grass fed beef burgers loaded with one cup fresh chopped basil. One word: GIMME!! And those fluffy grain free buns! Did I fool you into thinking they were “real”? Well, they are 100% paleo! And you wouldn’t believe how easy they are to make. Everything goes in the food processor and gets blended up. Then it’s in the oven. Easy as pie. And delicious.
Everybody wanted in on the action at today’s photoshoot. All the peeps pulled out their iPhones and were snapping photos and showing off their edits. I love seeing these kiddos handle food like a bossβπΌ
So, the other great thing about these burgers is this: they can totally be whole30 compliant! Simply leave out the bun and have yourself a mega burger topped with fresh avo, bacon, white sauce, and wrapped up in a leaf of lettuce (or not). How awesome is that! Eating whole30 can be so fun and enjoyable you totally forget you are eating healthy!
loads of sauces!
This sauce though. Sauces have been my latest obsession. I have been making all kinds of sauces; white, green, you name it. I have been putting sauces on my toast, salads, burgers… and anything that tastes better with sauce.
I have realized that the spice of life comes in a creamy form with all varieties… and it’s always, always made in the food processor (or blender). Because, life is easier that way.
This fresh and zesty white sauce is yes, made in the blender, but also, it’s loaded with fresh herbs and lemon juice… and lemon zest. One can never have too much lemon. To my wonderful surprise, this sauce looks like a melty piece of cheese on the burger. And for that, I cannot complain π
Moving on… to these fries!! Is there a bigger fan of sweet potato fries than myself? If so, please introduce yourself and we can battle it out in an epic showdown of fry eating to prove our devotion.
Naaaah, I’d rather just make a double (or triple) batch of these extra crispy garlic lime sweet potato fries. And eat them ALL. BY. MYSELF.
Want to know the secret to making crispy sweet potato fries? Here goes. It’s all in the cooking time and amount of oil. Bake those babies long and slow with not too much and not too little extra virgin olive oil. Turn them halfway through to spread the crispness around to everyone. And then watch them bake and turn into beautiful brown munchies. Dipping these fries in some of that sauce never hurts either π
Now that I have worked up an appetite looking at those burgers and fries, let the good eats vibes roll and lemme bite into one of those PRE Brands burgers.

Wow – simply wow – Got to make this but I’ll skip the fries. Got to ask what plugin do you use to calculate your nutritional information on your recipes?
Thank you! I use WP Ultimate Recipe for my recipe/nutrition plugin.
Hi! Thank you for this recipe. I am so looking forward to making this tonight. How many burgers does this recipe make?
Yay! I hope you enjoy them π It makes 4 large burgers.
These burgers look HEAVENLY! Between the bacon, garlic, avocado and basil, I bet the flavor is ridiculously good!
Thank you Bethany!
Delicious!!! Thank you!
Yay! You’re welcome π
Learning new dish provide me too peace and this is always sources of joy to visit your blog. Thank You
New to your site, and to all things Paleo/Whole30 (yes, been under a rock!). Can’t wait to try this, and a few other recipes for starters. Everything looks TASTY!! Would it be too much to ask that you include a small photo with your printable recipes? You do have lovely photos afterall! Thanks! Looking forward to exploring the rest of your site!!
Thanks Kay! Good idea!
Just made these burgers tonight – OMG! The best burger I have ever eaten!! They were delicious! My family loved them. I was not able to make the buns because I could not find the husk flour used, but I used a paleo gluten free bun from the store. I will be making these again. I think I will also use the burger (meat) and make a burger with marscappne cheese, portobello mushroom and carmalized onions. The basil mixed in with the meat will go really well with those ingredients! π
Looks delish! I can’t have eggs … suggestions on substitutes?
Flax egg?? I haven’t tried it. It may work π
Wow that is one epic stack!! great job Kaylie!
Thank you!
This looks so good! Why are the buns paleo?
Hi Vanessa, I made the buns with paleo ingredients π
Does this burger cook on a grill well?
Yes! π
Just looking at this burger makes me salivate, no exaggeration. Thank you for sharing Kaylie. I’m a fan of making mine with some caramelized onions on top.
Thank you Jess!
Oh. My. Sweetmarymotherofjesus. I made these for dinner last night as a lettuce wrap. And I didnβt even pause long enough to take a picture because it smelled so good (even though it was gorgeous!). And it was gone before I even realized this. And it was so filling that there were leftover patties for today! Iβm normally a lurker and non commenter, but this meal was EPIC. If your debating on the homemade ranch or fries, DO NOT SKIP! This whole meal was fan-freakin-tastic! Thank you kaylie! First time on your site, and Iβm sure Iβll be lurking for other lovely recipies!! πππ
Thank you so much Katie! Glad to hear you enjoyed this! π
Hey there, just came across your recipe! This looks amazing! Is the nutritional information for all the toppings and burger bun or just the burger?
Hi Mandy, yes- it’s for all the toppings etc as well. π
We love our burgers without buns, especially when theyβre topped with such deliciousness!
