Burger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patties

    In a bowl, season the Angus ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form it into two equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the hickory smoked bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burgers

    In the same skillet, cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burgers

    On each burger bun, place a leaf of lettuce, followed by the cooked burger patty with melted cheese, crispy bacon, a slice of tomato, and drizzle with BBQ sauce. Top with the other half of the bun.
