Bacon Cheeseburger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    Slice the onion into thin rings. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and fry the onion rings until golden brown and crispy. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In the same pan, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Make the Burger Patties

    In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Shape into two equal patties.

  4. 4

    Cook the Burger Patties

    In the same pan, cook the burger patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Add Cheese

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

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of the burger buns, place the cheese-covered patty, followed by crispy bacon, onion strings, BBQ sauce, and chili. Top with the other half of the bun.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
