INGREDIENTS
2 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend for juicy burgers)
12 slices cheddar cheese
12 slices crispy bacon
4 brioche or sesame seed buns
2 tbsp butter (for toasting buns)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, ketchup, mustard, mayo
PREPARATION STEPS
Prepare the Bacon:
In a skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crispy. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
Form and Cook the Patties:
Divide the ground beef into 12 equal portions and gently shape each portion into a patty, slightly larger than your buns to account for shrinkage while cooking.
Season both sides of each patty with salt and pepper.
Heat a large skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties in batches for about 3-4 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. Cover the skillet or grill to melt the cheese.
Prepare the Buns:
Spread butter on the inside of each bun and toast them in a skillet or on the grill until golden brown.
Assemble the Burger:
Start with the bottom bun and layer three cheesy patties on top of each other.
Add three slices of crispy bacon over the top patty.
If desired, add any optional toppings like lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, or condiments.
Top with the other half of the bun.
