Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 8 slices bacon
- 4 large eggs
- 4 cheddar cheese slices
- 4 hamburger buns
- 0.25 cup sriracha mayonnaise (optional)
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 tomato
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat a skillet or grill to medium-high heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties about 3/4-inch thick.
Cook the bacon in a separate skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
Using the same skillet, add the vegetable oil and fry the eggs sunny-side up or to your preferred doneness. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
Toast the hamburger buns with 1 tablespoon of butter spread across the cut sides. Heat until golden and slightly crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
Place the beef patties on the preheated grill or skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip, add a slice of cheddar cheese to each patty, and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until cooked to your desired level of doneness.
While the patties finish cooking, slice the tomato into 4 thin slices and wash/dry the lettuce leaves.
Assemble the burgers: Spread a thin layer of sriracha mayonnaise (if using) onto the bottom half of each toasted bun. Layer lettuce, a slice of tomato, the cooked beef patty with cheese, 2 slices of bacon, and 1 fried egg. Top with the upper bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Morning Glory Burgers!
