Bacon Rancher Burger* Recipe

Burger Preparation

1. 1

   Make the Ranch Dressing

   In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1/4 cup of sour cream, 1 tablespoon of dried dill, 1 tablespoon of garlic powder, 1 tablespoon of onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

2. 2

   Prepare the Bacon

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

3. 3

   Saute the Onions

   In the same skillet, add sliced onions and sauté until they are translucent and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.

4. 4

   Form the Patties

   Divide the ground beef into two equal portions and form into patties. Season with salt and pepper.

5. 5

   Cook the Patties

   In the skillet, cook the patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach desired doneness. Place a slice of American cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

6. 6

   Assemble the Burgers

   On the bottom half of each bun, spread a generous amount of ranch dressing. Place one patty with melted cheese, add three slices of crispy bacon, some sautéed onions, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.
