Patty Ingredients

Toppings

Bun

Method

Prepare the Patty

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties that are slightly larger than the burger buns, as they will shrink while cooking.

Cook the Bacon

  1. 3

    Fry the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until crispy. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, remove from skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess fat.

Cook the Patties

  1. 4

    Grill the Patties

    In the same skillet or on a grill, cook the patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 5

    Build the Burger

    On the bottom half of each burger bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, the crispy bacon strips, a slice of tomato, and pickles. Add ketchup and mustard to taste, then top with the other half of the bun.
