Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef (80/20 mix)
• 4 pieces brioche burger buns
• 4 slices cheddar cheese slices
• 8 slices bacon strips
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 2 tbsp butter
• 0.25 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp ketchup
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp pickle relish
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 4 pieces lettuce leaves
• 1 large tomato
• 12 pieces pickle slices

Directions

Step 1

Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions (1/4 lb each) and gently shape them into patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Season both sides with salt and black pepper. Refrigerate until ready to cook.

Step 2

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crisp. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 3

Thinly slice the yellow onion. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet used for the bacon and melt over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until caramelized. Set aside.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, and pickle relish to create the burger sauce. Set aside.

Step 5

Slice the tomato into even rounds and prepare the lettuce leaves. Set aside.

Step 6

Heat a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat. Cook the burger patties for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the patties from the heat and let rest for a minute.

Step 7

Toast the brioche buns by spreading the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter on the cut sides and placing them face down on the grill pan. Toast until golden and slightly crisp, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Assemble the burgers: Spread a generous amount of the prepared burger sauce on the bottom bun. Add a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, and 3 pickle slices. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top. Add two slices of crispy bacon and a portion of caramelized onions. Finish with the top bun.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as fries or a crisp salad.
