Ingredients

1 batch Special Burger Sauce
2 8 oz tubes crescent roll dough separated into 16 triangles
8 slices bacon
1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef
1 medium onion finely diced
1 1/2 Tbsp hamburger or steak seasoning
1/2 tsp salt adjust to taste
16 dill pickle slices
12 slices American cheese
2 Tbsp butter melted
1 Tbsp sesame seeds

Instructions

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together ingredients for Special Burger Sauce. Place into an airtight container and chill until using.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Spray liberally with cooking spray.
Meanwhile, in a large 12 inch skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove to paper towels, reserving 3 Tbsp drippings in pan. Cook onion and ground beef in drippings over medium-high heat. Cook until no pink remains. Add hamburger or steak seasoning and salt, mixing well. Drain excess fat from pan.
Crumble cooked bacon, adding to ground beef. Add 1/2 cup sauce and mix well. Set the meat mixture aside to cool slightly.
To assemble crescent ring: Place a ramekin or cereal bowl in center of baking pan. Arrange crescent triangles, slightly overlapping, around ramekin with pointed ends pointing outwards.
Cover bottom of widest portion of crescent rolls with 5 slices cheese. Spread ground beef mixture over cheese. Top with remaining 5 slices cheese. Arrange pickle slices on top.
Bring pointed end of triangle over filling, tucking underneath the other side. Brush with butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden. Let stand for 5 minutes then slice and serve with remaining sauce.

Notes

Most hamburger and steak seasonings include salt, pepper, garlic and onion in the blend. Adjust the seasonings and amounts, according to the brand of seasoning used.
