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

    In the same skillet or on a grill, cook the beef patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

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

    Spread BBQ sauce on the bottom half of the burger bun. Add the lettuce, followed by the patty with melted cheese, bacon, onion rings, tomato slices, and finally the top bun.
