Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes, then drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Divide the beef into 4 equal balls and gently shape into patties slightly wider than the buns. Press a small dimple in the center of each and season both sides with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Heat the skillet over medium-high and cook the patties 4 minutes on the first side without pressing.

  4. 4

    Flip, top each patty with a slice of cheddar, and cook 3 to 4 minutes more until the cheese melts and the beef reaches 160°F.

  5. 5

    Toast the buns cut side down in the skillet for 1 minute. Slice the tomato and onion.

  6. 6

    Spread mayonnaise and ketchup on the buns, then stack lettuce, patty, bacon, tomato, and onion. Serve hot.
