Ingredients

• ground beef (80% lean) - 300 grams
• kosher salt - 1 teaspoon
• black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• onion powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• cheddar cheese (sliced) - 2 slices
• bacon - 4 slices
• burger buns (kosher) - 2
• lettuce leaves - 2
• tomato (sliced) - 1 medium
• pickles (sliced) - 4 slices
• mustard - 1 tablespoon
• ketchup - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat.
2. In a bowl, combine ground beef, kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
3. Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties, about 1.5 cm thick.
4. Cook the bacon slices in the skillet or grill until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
5. In the same skillet or grill, cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each. Cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium doneness.
6. While the burgers are cooking, toast the burger buns until golden.
7. Assemble the burgers: on the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the burger patty with melted cheddar, crispy bacon, tomato slices, pickles, mustard, and ketchup.
8. Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
