Bacon Cheeseburger with In – N - Out Burger Sauce
In – N - Out Burgers were California’s first drive-thru hamburger stand in 1948, the same year McDonald’s opened in the sunny state. The In – N – Out sauce uses dill pickles, while McDonalds uses sweet pickles.

- 1 tsp. dill pickle juice

Mix all In - N - Out Sauce ingredients and refrigerate until serving. Will last refrigerated for 2 – 3 days.
Heat grill to 400.
Lightly salt and pepper hamburger patties and place on grill. Cook for 7 minutes and flip.
Grill another 7 minutes and test to see they are cooked to your preference. Either continue to cook a few more minutes or remove from heat and serve.
Serve with any additional condiments as desired.
Considering hamburgers were first paired with pop or beer, it is a stretch for some to think about wine pairings. Bacon Cheeseburgers call for Syrah or Shiraz. Leave the bacon off and a Chianti or Rioja will do very nicely.
