How to Make the BEST Bacon Cheeseburger Crescent Ring

  • Ingredients you’ll need to make homemade Bacon Cheeseburger Crescent Ring: Two tubes of crescent rolls, ground beef, cooked and crumbled bacon, onion, hamburger seasoning or steak seasoning, sliced American cheese, melted butter and sesame seeds.

  • The bacon cheeseburger filling can be prepared in advance and kept chilled, then the crescent ring assembled just before baking.
  • The special burger sauce can also be prepared in advance, and in fact, it’s even better when given time for the flavors to marry.
  • There’s no wrong amount of pickles for this dish, just eyeball it depending on the size of the pickle slices and you’ll be good to go.
  • Allow a few minutes of stand time after baking, and before cutting for the cleanest slices.
  • Side dishes suggestions: Crispy Garlic Parmesan Fries, Sweet Potato Fries made in the oven, sweet and smoky Barbecue Baked BeansSouthern Potato Salad or Homestyle Macaroni Salad are all stellar options.
  • You can serve condiments such as mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup and barbecue sauce on the side for those who might like to make their own dipping sauce.
  • Storage options: You can store leftover Bacon Cheeseburger Crescent Ring Wrapped in foil chilled in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or in an air fryer.
  • The crescent rolls will naturally soften after being chilled.
