1
Make the Guinness BBQ Sauce
In a saucepan, combine the Guinness, ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, and cook for about 15-20 minutes until thickened. Set aside.
2
Caramelize the Onions
Slice the onion and cook it in a skillet over medium heat with a bit of oil, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.
3
Cook the Bacon
In another skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
4
Form and Cook the Burgers
Form the ground beef into 4 patties. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the patties on a grill or skillet over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. Add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.
5
Assemble the Burger
Toast the brioche buns lightly. Spread some Guinness BBQ sauce on the bottom half, add the burger patty with melted cheese, top with caramelized onions, bacon, and a fried onion ring. Finish with the top half of the bun.
