Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

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

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    In a bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Form into two burger patties.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    In the same skillet, cook the burger patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Melt the Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a generous amount of pimento cheese on each patty to melt.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the skillet or grill.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, layer arugula, the burger patty with melted pimento cheese, crispy bacon, roasted tomatoes, and a drizzle of Tabasco jam. Top with the other half of the bun.
