Bacon Cheeseburger Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
- 1
Make the Bacon Jam
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside. In the same skillet, add chopped onions and cook until caramelized. Chop the bacon and add it back to the skillet. Stir in a splash of water and let it simmer until it forms a jam-like consistency. Set aside.

Prepare the Worcestershire Mayo
In a bowl, mix mayonnaise with Worcestershire sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- 3
Form the Patties
Divide the ground beef into four equal portions and gently form into patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing while cooking. Season with salt and pepper.

Assemble the Burgers
Toast the everything buns lightly. Spread the Worcestershire mayo on the bottom half of the bun, place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, add a generous spoonful of bacon jam, and top with the other half of the bun.
