Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the patties

    In a bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Form into two equal patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the bacon

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

  3. 3

    Caramelize the onions

    In the same skillet, add sliced onions and cook on low heat until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

Cooking the patties

  1. 4

    Grill the patties

    In the same skillet or on a grill, cook the beef patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness.

  2. 5

    Add cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place two slices of double smoked cheddar on each patty to melt.

Assembling the burger

  1. 6

    Build the burger

    Spread mayonnaise and mustard on the bottom half of each burger bun. Place a patty with melted cheese on each bun, top with caramelized onions and two slices of smoked bacon. Close with the top half of the bun.
