Burger Buns

Method

Cooking the Bacon

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Once done, place them on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

Preparing the Burger

  1. 2

    Form the Patties

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture into two equal parts and shape them into patties.

  2. 3

    Cook the Patties

    In the same skillet with some bacon grease, cook the burger patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip them and add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your desired doneness.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the hamburger buns lightly on the skillet for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  2. 5

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer the lettuce, followed by the cooked burger patty with melted cheese, bacon slices, tomato slices, onion rings, and pickles. Add ketchup and mustard to taste.

  3. 6

    Complete the Burger

    Place the top half of the bun on the assembled ingredients, pressing down gently.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Serve the bacon cheeseburger immediately with a side of fries or your favorite side dish.
