Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef (80/20 blend)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 cup Button mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tablespoon Butter
• 4 slices Bacon strips
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
• 4 pieces Hamburger buns
• 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 1 medium Tomato, sliced
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

Step 2

Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Use your thumb to make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the bacon slices to the skillet and cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the bacon and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

Step 4

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Wipe the skillet clean and heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the burger patties to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

Step 6

During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty and cover the skillet with a lid to allow the cheese to melt.

Step 7

Toast the hamburger buns briefly in the oven or a toaster until lightly golden brown.

Step 8

Assemble the burgers: Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom bun of each burger. Add a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, the burger patty with melted cheese, 1 slice of cooked bacon (broken in half if needed), and a portion of sautéed mushrooms. Place the top bun on each burger.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries or a salad, and enjoy!
