Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patty

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, beer, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined and form into two equal patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Burger Patties

    Heat 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.

Bacon Preparation

  1. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet, cook the applewood smoked bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

Chipotle Aioli Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Chipotle Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, chipotle peppers, lime juice, and minced garlic until well combined. Set aside.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each pretzel bun, spread a generous amount of chipotle aioli. Place the cooked burger patty on top, followed by two slices of aged cheddar cheese, crispy bacon, lettuce, and tomato slices. Top with the other half of the pretzel bun.
