1
Prepare the Patties
In a large bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties, about 4 oz. each.

2
Cook the Patties
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
3
Cook the Bacon
In a separate skillet, cook the bacon strips over medium heat until crispy. Remove from heat and place on paper towels to drain excess grease.
4
Prepare the Onion Straws
Thinly slice the onion and soak the slices in cold water for about 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry. In a small bowl, toss the onion slices with a bit of flour (optional) and fry them in hot oil until golden brown and crispy.

5
Build Your Burger
Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster. On the bottom half of each bun, place a cooked beef patty topped with melted cheddar cheese. Add 2 strips of crispy bacon, a handful of onion straws, pickles, and a generous drizzle of BBQ sauce before placing the top half of the bun on.
