1
Forming the Patties
Divide the ground beef into two equal portions and form them into balls. Season with salt and black pepper.
2
Smashing the Patties
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place the beef balls in the skillet and smash them down with a spatula to form thin patties. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side.
3
Flipping the Patties
Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts.

4
Frying the Bacon
In a separate pan, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and let drain on paper towels.

5
Preparing the Buns
Toast the brioche buns lightly on the skillet or griddle until golden brown.
6
Adding the Avocado
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash it lightly with a fork and season with salt.
7
Building the Burger
On the bottom half of each toasted bun, spread a generous amount of mashed avocado. Place the melted cheese patty on top, followed by two slices of crispy bacon. Add a handful of potato sticks for crunch, then top with the other half of the bun.
