Burger Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patty

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form the beef into two equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burger Patties

    In the same skillet, cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, adding a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    Remove the patties and bacon from the skillet. Place the burger buns cut-side down in the skillet and toast until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, layer the lettuce, cooked patty with cheese, bacon, tomato slice, onion rings, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the burgers hot with a side of French fries.
