Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a large bowl, divide the ground beef into four equal portions (8 oz each) and shape them into patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the smoked bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Grill the Patties

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the patties with salt and pepper, then grill for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each. Cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the desired doneness is reached.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, cut the brioche buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread hickory BBQ sauce on the bottom half of each toasted brioche bun. Place a grilled patty on top, followed by crispy bacon slices and fried onion straws. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Seasoned Fries

    Prepare seasoned fries according to package instructions, or fry fresh fries until golden and crispy. Season with salt to taste.
