Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Ground beef
  • 4 Soft taco-sized Flour tortillas
  • 8 slices Cheddar cheese
  • 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Al-purpose seasoning salt
  • ¼ cup Bread Crumbs
  • 8 slices bacon Cooked, and cut in half
  • ½ cup onions Diced and grilled
  • 1 large tomato diced
  • 2 cups Iceberg lettuce Shredded
  • 8 tablespoons Secret Sauce

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-sized bowl, combine ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, bread crumbs, and all-purpose seasoning salt. Mix to combine. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into balls. Flatten each ball slightly.
  • Place a prepared ball of ground beef in the center of each flour tortilla and press it to the edges of each tortilla. Preheat griddle to 325°. Place tortilla meat side down and cook for 4–5 minutes, until the beef is brown and crispy.
  • Flip the tortillas over and cook until crispy and golden brown. While the tortilla is cooking, place 2 slices of cheese on each quesadilla on top of the browned ground beef. On one half, sprinkle with sautéed onions and place two slices of bacon per quesadilla on top of the onions.
  • Once the quesadilla is crispy and the cheese is melted, remove from the griddle with a spatula and fold each quesadilla in half. Add shredded lettuce, secret sauce, and tomatoes. Cut into quarters and serve immediately with a side of secret sauce for dipping.
