Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

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

  2. 2

    Cook the Beef Patty

    In the same skillet, shape the ground beef into a patty and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and place the cheddar cheese on top. Cook for another 4-5 minutes or until desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    While the patty is cooking, spread butter on the brioche buns and toast them in another skillet until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of the toasted bun, spread mayonnaise, then layer with the lettuce, cooked beef patty with cheese, crispy bacon, and slices of tomato. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
