  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Form into two patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In the same skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside.

  4. 4

    Fry the Egg

    Using the bacon grease, fry the egg to your liking (sunny side up, over easy, etc.) and set aside.

  5. 5

    Toast the Buns

    Lightly toast the burger buns in the skillet until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread Thousand Island dressing on the bottom bun. Layer lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and your cooked patty. Add cheese, bacon, egg, avocado, and mushrooms as desired. Top with the other half of the bun.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the Tavern Burger with your choice of sides.
