Ingredients
  

  • 10 slices bacon, cut into 1/4 inch strips
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1-2 jalapeños,diced
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 3 tbs ketchup
  • 3 tbs mustard
  • 2 tbs pickle juice
  • 2 tbs Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Sliced green onions, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy. Remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate, keeping the drippings in the skillet.
  • Sauté onions and jalapeños to lightly soften, only about 2 minutes. Add the beef, cumin, salt, and pepper then cook through. Add the garlic during the last minute of cooking. Remove from heat and drain the fat.
  • Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, ketchup, mustard, pickle juice, Worcestershire sauce, and half of the cheeses.
  • Once cool enough to handle, add the beef to the cream cheese mixture and stir to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture to a baking dish (a 9 x 13 or a large cast iron should do the trick). Top with the remaining cheese then cover with foil.
  • Bake for 15 minutes with the foil, then 10 minutes without.
  • Top with crispy bacon and green onions, serve warm with chips or crusty bread.
