Carnivore Cheeseburger Pie

Course Main Course
Cuisine American, Comfort Food

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbsp. bacon fat
  • 2 lbs. Ground Beef
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder optional
  • 1 tsp. onion powder optional
  • 2 tsp. salt or to taste
  • 1 tsp. black pepper or to taste
  • 8 large eggs
  • 4 oz. cream cheese optional
  • 1/4 cup crumbled, cooked bacon
  • 2 tsp. Franks Hot Sauce optional
  • 2 cups shredded cheese of choice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Heat large, oven proof skillet (cast iron is best) over medium high heat. Add bacon fat and swirl to coat bottom of pan.
  • Brown ground beef until no longer pink. Add salt, pepper and all additional seasonings if you so choose.
  • Add cream cheese if using and stir around until melted.
  • In a separate bowl, beat eggs. Add to skillet and mix in well.
  • If you're using bacon and you want it to remain tender, you can mix it in now. Alternatively, sprinkle it on top if you like it a little crispy. I like it crispy so I add it in the next step.
  • Top meat and egg mixture with cheese and then bacon and place in the oven. Bake for 15 minutes or until set (stick a knife in the middle to make sure there is no more liquid) and cheese is melted and slightly browned.
  • Serve as is or with your favorite burger toppings - pickles, sugar free ketchup, mustard, etc.
