Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Burger Patties

    In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into two equal patties.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burgers

    In the same skillet used for the bacon, cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of bleu cheese on each patty to melt.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns lightly, then layer lettuce, the cooked burger patty with melted bleu cheese, bacon, tomato, and red onion on each bun. Top with the other half of the bun.
