Pub Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Onion Jam

   In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and salt. Cook until they are soft and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.

2. 2

   Add sugar and vinegar

   Stir in the brown sugar and balsamic vinegar. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes until the mixture thickens. Set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the bacon

   In another skillet, cook the smoked bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

4. 4

   Form and cook the burger patties

   In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into two patties. In a skillet or grill, cook the patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness.

5. 5

   Add cheese

   During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Muenster cheese on each patty and cover to melt.

6. 6

   Assemble the burger

   Toast the burger buns. Spread the peppercorn aioli on both halves of the buns, place the burger patty with melted cheese, top with crispy bacon, and a generous scoop of onion jam.

7. 7

   Serve

   Place the top bun on the stacked burger and serve immediately.
