Burger Ingredients

Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the Applewood smoked bacon until crispy. Remove from skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess fat.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Beef Patty

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into a patty approximately 1/2 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patty

    In the same skillet, add olive oil and heat on medium-high. Cook the beef patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Melt the Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place the sharp cheddar cheese on top of the patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.

  5. 5

    Prepare Tater Tots

    While the burger is cooking, prepare the tater tots according to package instructions until crispy.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of the burger bun, place the cheese-covered patty, then add the crispy bacon and tater tots. Top with the other half of the bun.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately, and enjoy your Hangover Burger!
