Preparation Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients

Gather all the ingredients and ensure that the American Wagyu patty is at room temperature for even cooking.

Cook the Bacon

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the slab bacon until crispy. Remove and let drain on paper towels.

Grill the Wagyu Patty

In the same skillet or on a grill, cook the American Wagyu patty for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Top with clothbound cheddar cheese during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Grill the Onion

In the remaining bacon fat, add sliced onions and grill until they are caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

Toast the Brioche Roll

Lightly toast the brioche roll on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

Assemble the Burger

Spread garlic mayo on the bottom half of the toasted brioche roll. Layer the Wagyu patty with melted cheddar, crispy bacon, grilled onions, and foie gras truffle butter. Top with the other half of the brioche roll.

Serve

Serve the burger hot with your choice of sides.
