Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 mix)
- 8 slices of bacon
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 slices of American cheese
- Lettuce, tomato, and onion (for topping)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
- While it heats up, divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties. Make a small indent in the center of each patty.
- Season the patties with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Cook the bacon slices in a skillet until crispy. Remove and let drain on paper towels.
- In the same skillet, add the beef patties. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip them over.
- After flipping, place a slice of cheese on each patty and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your liking.
- Toast the hamburger buns lightly on the grill or in the skillet.
- Assemble the burgers by placing a patty on the bottom bun, topping it with bacon, lettuce, tomato, and onion. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Five Guys Bacon Burger!
