Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 4 slices bacon
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 pieces burger buns
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato
- 1 small red onion
- 0.25 cup ketchup
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently to incorporate the spices evenly through the beef.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal parts and shape them into patties, slightly larger than the burger buns, as they will shrink when cooked.
In a frying pan over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until they are crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
Using the same pan, if desired, grill the beef patties over medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes on the first side. Flip the patties, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.
While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato and red onion into thin rings.
Toast the burger buns in a toaster or on a pan for about 1 minute until slightly golden.
To assemble the burgers, spread a layer of ketchup and mayonnaise on each side of the toasted buns.
Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the cheese-topped burger patty, a slice of crispy bacon, a tomato slice, and a few rings of red onion. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious beef bacon and cheese burgers!
