Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Cook the Burger Patties

    In the same skillet, cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Place two slices of American cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to melt.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the cheese is melting, toast the hamburger buns in the skillet until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of the bun, layer lettuce, the cheesy burger patty, crispy bacon, a slice of tomato, and your choice of ketchup and mustard. Place the top half of the bun on.
