This Keto Crack Burger is the best thing I ate all month | Keto Friendly

Hey everyone! Welcome back to my channel. Today, we're taking the beloved Crack Burger to the next level with an elevated, low-carb twist that is perfect for keto enthusiasts. This gourmet delight combines juicy ground chuck, applewood smoked bacon, and sharp cheddar cheese, all topped with a homemade garlic aioli. Plus, we're using low-carb buns that make each burger just 3.83g net carbs!
Ingredients:
1.5 lbs ground chuck (80/20 blend)
3 tbsp sour cream
2 tbsp ranch dressing mix
1/3 cup cooked and crumbled applewood smoked bacon
1 cup shredded aged sharp cheddar cheese
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh chives
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
4 low-carb brioche buns (3g net carbs each)
Butter lettuce, heirloom tomato slices, and red onion rings (optional)
Homemade garlic aioli (1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tsp pre-minced garlic, 1 tsp lemon juice, salt, and pepper)
Instructions:
Prepare the Garlic Aioli: Mix mayonnaise, pre-minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Prepare the Patties: In a large bowl, gently combine ground chuck, sour cream, ranch dressing mix, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, chives, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Avoid overmixing. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and shape into patties about 1 inch thick.
Cook the Patties: Preheat your grill or cast iron skillet to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates or pan. Place the patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4 minutes on one side. Flip carefully and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
Prepare the Buns and Toppings: Toast the low-carb buns lightly on the grill or in a skillet with a bit of butter. Assemble the burgers by spreading garlic aioli on both halves of the buns. Layer with butter lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion rings.
Serve: Place the patties on the prepared buns. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Shredding your own cheese is better for Keto because the pre-shredded cheese often has some kind of flour so that it doesn't clump.

[@nancyostrander7345]

THE ONE AND ONLY REASON I SHRED MY OWN CHEESE.

[@Cynthiabecker24]

Hey Dave, Ive made a couple of your recipes so far.....you're doing great and damn am I entertained❤

[@TinaTia-eq2kh]

Dave gives a new meaning to the phrase "dinner and a show" LOL

[@25tinabina]

You amaze me! Thank you for sharing your heart and love for cooking. You are a star in my eyes!

[@barbarapond1510]

I was eating my shrimp salad while watching. Although my salad was awesome the burger looks really good. I've been trying to lose some weight the last year 70lbs so far. I may need to try this burger at some point. Thanks Dave a great video.🐩🐩🐩🐩🐩🐩🐩🐩

[@CookingWthDave]

Wtg!!! Congrats! Let me know if you try it!

[@davez5941]

Brown the rolls in the burger oils, added flavors. The electric griddle inside is nice, but the steam coming off of the stuff you are cooking had oils in it, and that settles over everything in the house unless you use it under a hood or vent of some sort.

[@jochildress5003]

You crack me up! No pun intended.

[@pamromberg9147]

Drool. Those look delish! “And let’s talk about my buns”😂.

[@tinacornett2162]

Dave, Dave, Dave (shaking head) poor Tina! hahaha you are so cute and funny! I watch all of your channels and just love them! Thanks for all of the entertainment!

[@CookingWthDave]

Anytime! Thank you

[@ValerieTateWilliams]

If you want Keto BBQ sauce, try G Hughes sugar free brand. The sweet & spicy bbq sauce is amazing! All of their stuff I’ve tried is so good I’d buy it even if I wasn’t keto! My hubby loves burgers so I’ll have to try this recipe. Also, love the griddle!

[@jochildress5003]

You can get dehydrated chopped chives and have them on hand to reconstitute when you need them. Also precooked bacon bits in a bag. This is in the spirit of preminced garlic.

[@CookingWthDave]

Ahhh I should try that

[@Nico-c3c]

I can clearly see this young man is a millennial. Gen X here and we don't own one of those thermometers 🤣🤣🤣Burgers look amazing!

[@CookingWthDave]

True enough

[@ceceosborn176]

Im Gen X and i use a meat thermometer all the time. And an electric flattop grill.

[@cheryldelacruz7731]

Wow that looks really good. Butter lettuce is what I use to make spring rolls with the rice paper.

[@CookingWthDave]

It was amazing

[@graceskronicz9068]

I just love your cooking channel ❤❤❤

[@CookingWthDave]

Thank you so much 😊

[@warriorqueen1609]

AS HOMER WOULD SAYYYYY """AHHHHHHHH BURGERSSS"""!!!!!😛🤤

[@CookingWthDave]

Haha

[@sumofme1]

The little dash we call that adding love

[@BitsySkittlesPryss]

Hahaha! I used to HATE mayo as a kid. I don't remember what turned me around but thank you Jesus for maturation because now it's my FAV!

[@TruthSeekerNC]

These look DELICIOUS. Definitely trying them the next time I cook burgers. I want the griddle too!

[@CookingWthDave]

Hope you enjoy

[@sumofme1]

I'm in Utah and fry sauce is very popular here, it's mayo and ketchup or you can substitute tarter sauce

[@jeniferwhittington9083]

You have a new sub. I have been watching quite a bit of your videos, and you crack me up. 😂

[@map4853]

Love your cooking ❤

[@CookingWthDave]

Thanks

[@jiminlover8212]

Jar-lic is always in my fridge. So handy.

[@guitarsandbanjos]

Great video!!! You are a natural entertainer, and fun cook to watch. Love that you do a lot of Keto recipes, since I am doing keto/low carb.

[@kaakrepwhatever]

I hated mayo as a kid. Now I make my own.

[@Orangepower222]

what a cool griddle that is never seen one with a lid like that!

[@joycelawrence1434]

something like that i mix all the ingredients well before adding the beef. just makes it so much easier.

[@BillYovino]

I made this again but this time I remembered the Worcestershire sauce. I thought it was too much. I would leave it out or use just 1/2 teaspoon of it. I weighed out 4 ounce balls, formed them into patties, then wrapped and froze them. It's nice to be able to grab one out of the freezer anytime I want.

[@georgiacorey954]

Yum

[@CookingWthDave]

It was

[@Time_Traveler_Karen]

🍔 😋 Thanks Dave

[@johnkurtz2691]

'profile?' getting foodie😏 lived in Holland back in the day, Eindhoven. mayo on fries & sugar on popcorn just threw me, but it did grow on me😅 The Indonesian food there was my favorite. these burgers look good😋I need those keto buns.

[@BillYovino]

I made this tonight and it was a big hit. I didn't use the Worcestershire (I forgot) and didn't make the aioli, but it was great. Definitely a high-end Burger Bar type of burger. The mix made 6 good size burgers and I have 3 left in the fridge uncooked.

[@CookingWthDave]

Fantastic!

[@Lisa-jm4vn]

Butter lettuce is used as a bun replacement for low carb meals.

[@CookingWthDave]

Good to know!

[@jiminlover8212]

You finally got the jar-lic!!

[@lauralarita2896]

Delos delicious awesome delicious Delos tea Delos Delos😂😂😂 oh however, you said it that should be on a T-shirt and make that your word get it patterned😂❤❤❤

[@WandaOlinger]

[@CookingWthDave]

[@TonyaZimmerman-iy6pi]

[@CookingWthDave]

It was!

[@desi_vintage]

Great recipe, and video Dave! Love all your channels, appreciate the time and effort you always put into them! ☺️

[@CookingWthDave]

thank you

[@karismith5079]

OMG YOU ARE MAKING ME HUNGRY!! THIS LOOKS SO GOOD

[@CookingWthDave]

It was!

[@iowahooch]

For a second I thought this channel was a picker I follows doppelgänger lol

[@faithsrvtrip8768]

Hahaha you are so funny! Amsterdam is where you learned to like mayo! I know they dip french fries in mayo over there and I came back and do the same thing, now, too! I totally prep using paper plates in my RV! Mostly for grating cheese just like you! I found some Duke's mayo and it's really good stuff! From a lake in western Montana, happy cooking Dave and everyone else :)

[@DLFH]

Absolutely best reason to buy gadgets and the e-griddle is on my list. Crack it all out and try ranch in ground chicken, pork or turkey.

[@ceceosborn176]

I use my electric grill on the covered porch, especially in the winter.

[@beatricefiset113]

💕💓I love your videos. So entertaining.

[@donnabeach1250]

Oh!! Turn up the heat to get the outside crust. 😀

[@JasonSaeler]

Chat GPT trick, after it creates a recipe, if you have too much of a particular ingredient or the recipe calls for less... Ask Chat GPT to modify.. SO in this case, "Modify for 2lbs ground beef". It will then rewrite the recipe to fit your ingredients.

[@CookingWthDave]

ahh fair point!

[@One-Eyed-Willys-Rich-Stuff]

If you can’t find your measuring spoons just use a large spoon aka table spoon. The smaller spoon in your drawer is a tea spoon

[@CookingWthDave]

Thanks

[@cindywilliams4287]

I use a lettuce wrap, 😋

[@deettetripp9227]

Good Job Dave Looks Fabulous!!! Wish Mt Dew Kicked me like that!

[@cferge]

2x cloves of Garlic would be a nice Teaspoon full of the squeeze bottle stuff.... :-)

[@CandyLindTX]

YUM.

[@freetheppl5376]

Love ur chanel,new subbie!

[@CookingWthDave]

Thanks for subbing! Welcome in

[@mmanda515]

For description & macros, total carbs (just for bun alone) is actually 16g. So has to be way more than 4g total

[@colleenmoriarty1309]

OK David, I wasn't going to ask, but after searching forever, where did you get the blackstone E griddle for under 200.....can't wait to make this....

[@CookingWthDave]

I got at Walmart!

[@colleenmoriarty1309]

I wonder if ground turkey would taste as good???????

[@lauralarita2896]

Dalish e thedelicious she asked tea😂 😂😂 I can’t get the computer to say it or spell it out😂❤❤❤😊

[@addieharris239]

Looks good Dave

[@romulaperez-w2y]

Poke hole in end of lemon with toothpicks to squeeze out juice no mess your welcome

[@C5Rose3]

Yum! 😋

[@CookingWthDave]

It was!

[@marian5967]

Soda? Look up nano particles in cole

[@crazynoni18]

Opposite of mayo here...I hate mayo til this day because of my sister's making of sandwiches. NO MAYO or Miracle Whip!!

[@leahrowe847]

Ohhhh Dave... I'm hiding you from my daughter, bc if she sees that griddle, I'm in trouble!! She literally just upgraded her outside Blackstone, & was bemoaning the fact she won't be using come Winter... 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@juliettewannet6594]

👍🏻

[@jiminlover8212]

Were you drinkin that Baja Blast again?

[@darthgbc363]

I like the realemon juice. The stuff Walmart sells in the little lemon shaped squeeze container is awful. BTW. You're not right in the head. Nobody has extra bacon left over & all that extra that you chopped should go in with the mix you're making. LOL

[@Kimzworld1]

Careful with the keto buns MOST have SEED oil which stays in your body for 200 plus days :( Seed oils are worse for you than sugar :( Stick to a good Olive oil, avocado or Coconut, bacon grease, tallow, lard etc..

[@SanJoseDale]

Same with mayo

[@Kimzworld1]

@@SanJoseDale yes

[@CookingWthDave]

Thanks for the tip!

[@lovesJesus448]

❤looks good..I'll make it! But your missing out on a lot of flavor...don't toast your buns at first...toast them with the hamburger grease at the end of cooking..alot more flavor...all buns were put on the grills in the 40s, 50s, and 60s with the grease then " low fat" came on the scene in the 70s saying nonono...but use the grease it's good for you on KETO ❤praise the Lord Jesus ❤

[@marian5967]

Omg of course it's italian

[@alfonsoalfonso647]

They call them "Crack Burgers" cause if you eat too many, you get a big BUTT CRACK! 😮😮😮😊

[@CookingWthDave]

Haha … probably so

[@jiminlover8212]

Did you change the channel name again?

[@kimberlyostertag9840]

Looking crackalius 😂

AI Kichen = Always Indigestion. 😊😮

Haha. Clever

[@warriorqueen1609]

UHHHH OHHHHH CANNOT EAT MAYO, RANCH OR BACON LOL

[@CookingWthDave]

Booo

[@suemeyer7551]

Can't you get some char on that griddle? Burgers need some char 🚫beige meat.

Mt dew is sadly not keto
