Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into two equal-sized patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

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

  3. 3

    Grill the Patties

    In the same skillet or on a grill, cook the beef patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until desired doneness. Place the farmhouse cheddar and American cheese on top of the patties during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  4. 4

    Fry the Onion Rings

    In a separate pan, heat oil over medium heat and fry the hand-dipped onion rings until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns if desired. On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, a slice of mushroom, the cooked beef patty with melted cheese, 2 slices of bacon, and top with the onion rings. Spread BBQ sauce on the top half of the bun and place it on top.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the Big House Burger with additional BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
