     4 oz Cream cheese
   1/2 c  Mayonnaise

   1/2 ts Onion powder
   1/2 ts Garlic powder
     2 ts Mrs. Dash (original)

          Steak sauce or HP sauce
          Mayonnaise
          Bibb lettuce leaves
          Tomato slices
          Red onion; sliced thin
          Dill pickle sandwich slims

 BACON WEAVE: Set oven @ 425 F/218 C.

 Foil line 2 large cookie sheets and add 2 metal cooling
 racks to the cookie sheets. Use zip lock bag and add box
 of dark brown sugar, set aside.

 Take 3 slices of bacon and cut in half, you now have 6
 small sections of bacon to work with. Put the small
 bacon sections in the brown sugar bag and coat bacon
 very well.

 Take the 3 slices of bacon and run them horizontal on
 the metal cooling racks, then take 3 more slices of
 sugar coated bacon and weave vertically with the
 horizontal strips. You are basically building a woven
 bacon blanket. This may sound complicated but after you
 complete the first the rest are a breeze.

 Continue with bacon repeating the same steps until you
 have 6 bacon weaves. Sprinkle each bacon weave with red
 pepper flakes before baking.

 Bake in oven for 30 minutes or until bacon is done.
 While bacon is baking move on to pimento cheese recipe.

 NOTE FOR TIME SAVING: Make bacon weave and pimento
 cheese the day before and store in refrigerator. Warm
 bacon in microwave before serving on burgers.

 PIMENTO CHEESE: Using food processor shredded the three
 packages of block cheeses. Set aside.

 In large mixing bowl add mayo, cream cheese, pimentos
 and spices. With electric hand mixer blend together
 until smooth. Add the shredded cheeses to the mayo
 mixture and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to put
 on burgers.

 BURGERS: Fire up grill to at least 325 F/165 C.

 In large mixing bowl combine the 3 pounds of ground
 beef, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Form 6
 burgers into large 7 oz burger patties.

 Place burgers on grill. Cook on one side 10 to 12
 minutes, before turning baste with melted butter. Turn
 burgers and cook until medium to medium well or at least
 160F internal temperature.

 Just before taking burgers off grill add large dollop of
 pimento cheese mixture and let melt. Remove burgers and
 serve on buttered toasted buns.

 Assemble burger as bottom bun, lettuce, onion, burger,
 bacon weave, steak sauce, tomato, and sliced dill
 pickles. Add mayo or steak sauce to bun top.
