About this saved recipe
Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 burger patty
- 1 slice cheese
- 2 leaves lettuce
- 3 slices pickles
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 2 slices pickled onions
- 1 bottom bun
- 1 top bun
Instructions
- 1Cut the bacon into 1-2 inch squares and place them on a tray; freeze for about 30 minutes to firm up.
- 2Using a food processor or a sturdy grinder, pulse the frozen bacon until it forms a coarse mince.
- 3Gather the minced bacon into a loose ball, then place it on a hot skillet or griddle and immediately press down with a spatula to form a thin patty; season lightly with salt if desired.
- 4Cook the bacon patty over medium‑high heat, flipping once, until the edges are crispy and the meat is fully cooked, about 3–4 minutes per side.
- 5While the bacon patty rests, shape the prepared ground beef into a loose ball, place it on the same skillet, and smash it flat; cook for 2–3 minutes, then flip.
- 6Add the cheese slice on top of the beef patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
- 7Toast the bottom and top buns lightly on the skillet, just until golden.
- 8Assemble the burger: spread yellow mustard on the bottom bun, layer pickles, lettuce, the crispy bacon patty, the beef patty with melted cheese, pickled onion slices, drizzle ketchup, and finish with the top bun.
- 9Serve immediately while hot and enjoy.
