Cook the Patties
In the same skillet used for bacon, cook the patties over medium-high heat for about 4 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of American cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your desired doneness.
