1
Prepare the Wagyu
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Season the Wagyu beef lightly with salt and pepper. Grill the Wagyu for about 4-5 minutes on each side for a medium-rare finish, or adjust cooking time to your preference.
2
Cook the Bacon
In a separate skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
3
Slice the Vegetables
While the Wagyu and bacon are cooking, slice the tomato and onion. Rinse the lettuce leaf and set aside.
4
Assemble the Burger
Once the Wagyu is cooked, slice it into portions. On the bottom half of the giant burger bun, layer the lettuce, tomato, onion, cooked bacon, and Havarti cheese. Top with the sliced Wagyu and drizzle with burger sauce. Place the top half of the bun on the burger.

Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your Wagyu Pounder!
