1
Prepare the Beef Patties
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
2
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside on paper towels to drain.
3
Cook the Patties
In the same skillet, add olive oil if needed and increase heat to medium-high. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until they reach your desired doneness.
4
Add Cheese and Roast Beef
In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese. Warm the NOLA-style roast beef in a separate pan or microwave.
5
Assemble the Burgers
On each hamburger bun, layer the cheese-topped beef patty, a portion of warm roast beef, crispy bacon, and jalapeños. Top with the other half of the bun.
6
Serve
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your messy, flavorful Hurricane Katrina Burgers!
