Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef and Bacon Blend

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef tenderloin and chopped bacon. Form the mixture into a patty.

  2. 2

    Cook the Burger Patty

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Melt the Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of smoked cheddar cheese on top of the patty and cover to melt.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Bun

    Toast the brioche bun halves on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread house mayo on the bottom half of the bun. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top. Add lettuce, tomato, pickles, and red onion. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the burger with a side of papas fritas.
