Instructions
MAC N CHEESE BUNS
Make Mac n Cheese, whether fresh of boxed. Place in large bowl and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow cheese to cool and thicken.
Form 1 Cups worth of Mac N Cheese into each lower bun ( I used a burger press to make this simple) disc should be about 4.5 inches wide. For upper buns do use one cup each also but form a slight dome on the top.
Wrap each bun in clear plastic wrap and place in the freezer for about 20 minutes to allow to completely freeze.
Place flour and salt in small shallow bowl and mix together. Place eggs and milk in second and mis. In a third bowl place your Panko. One at a time dredge each bun half through the flour, then egg, and lastly panko. You can repeat a couple times to give your buns a thicker crust.
In medium sauce pad add about 3-4 inches of oil and heat over a medium-high heat. When Oil begins to simmer, add Mac n cheese buns one at a time, frying for a couple of minutes each until golden brown. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain.
BURGERS
Form ground beef into 4 equal patties.
Place 1/2 of the shredded Colby cheese in the center of two of the patties. Top with remaining two patties and pinch the edges to seal up.
Place on grill and cook to your desired temperature.
ASSEMBLY
Start with bottom Mac n Cheese bun, add burger patty, I sliced some tomato and lettuce to add to mine but this is completely option. Then add 2 strips of bacon and your favorite BBQ sauce.
