2- 2 ½ lbs ground sirloin
1 ½ cups shredded colby-jack cheese
8 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
⅓ cup barbecue sauce [i.e. Sweet Baby Ray's or your favorite]
⅓ cup minced onion
⅓ cup cold water
1 ½ teaspoon barbecue seasoning [i.e. McCormick Brown Sugar Bourbon, Barbecue Magic or your favorite]
4 thick cut slices colby-jack cheese
assorted toppings: lettuce tomato, onion, jalapeno slices, dill pickles
Barbecue mayo: [Whisk together and keep chilled]
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup barbecue sauce
¼-1/2 teaspoon barbecue seasoning adjust to taste

Add the first 6 ingredients to a small mixing bowl reserving the sliced cheese to melt on top later.
Using your hands, mix all of the ingredients together being careful not to over mix. Shape into 4-6 patties.
On the stove top using a grill pan, over medium-high heat, cook the burgers in a couple of drizzles of olive oil.
If grilling, oil the grates well before adding them to the grill. Cook on medium-high heat.
Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or to your desired level of doneness.
Serve on kaiser rolls dressed with your favorite toppings and a dollop of barbecue mayo.
