Method

Patties

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each into a patty, approximately 4 oz each.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through.

Toppings

  1. 3

    Sauté Onions and Mushrooms

    While the patties are cooking, slice the onion and mushrooms. In a separate skillet, add a little olive oil and sauté the onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Then add the mushrooms and continue cooking until they are tender, about another 3-4 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Bacon

    In the same skillet, add the bacon slices and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and place on paper towels to drain.

  3. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Once the patties are cooked, place a slice of American cheese on top of each patty and allow it to melt. Add the sautéed onions and mushrooms on top of the cheese. Add the crispy jalapenos and a slice of mozzarella cheese.
