Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

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

  2. 2

    Form and Cook the Burger Patties

    Divide the ground beef into four equal portions and form into patties. Season with salt and pepper. In the same skillet, cook the patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Fry the Eggs

    In another skillet, fry the eggs over medium heat, cooking until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny (about 2-3 minutes).

  4. 4

    Assemble the Breakfast Burger

    On the bottom half of each burger bun, place a cooked burger patty. Top each patty with a slice of American cheese, allowing it to melt slightly. Add a fried egg on top, followed by slices of tomato, crispy bacon, and pickled onions. Spread spicy aioli on the top half of the bun and place it on top of the burger.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the breakfast burgers immediately while hot and enjoy!
