Season the beef
In a mixing bowl, gently mix the ground beef with salt and pepper. Do not overwork the meat to keep burgers juicy.

Form the patties
Divide the seasoned beef into four equal portions and gently shape into ¾-inch thick patties. Make a shallow indent in the center of each to prevent bulging during cooking.

Cook the bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess fat.

Cook the patties and melt cheese
Cook the beef patties in the skillet over medium-high heat, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium. Flip once, laying a slice of cheddar on each patty during the last minute to melt.

Assemble the burgers
Spread mayonnaise on the bottom bun. Layer with lettuce, tomato, red onion, and pickle slices. Place the cheese-topped patties on top, add crispy bacon, then drizzle with ketchup and mustard. Cap with the top bun.

Serve
Serve the bacon cheeseburgers immediately, with extra pickle slices on the side if desired.
