Instructions
1
Prep
Shape the ground beef into one patty wider than the bun, press a center dimple, and season both sides with salt and pepper.
2
Fry
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes until the fat renders and the strips turn deep brown and crisp, then set aside.
3
Saute
Add the sliced onion and vegetable oil to the same skillet over medium heat and cook 5 minutes until softened, golden, and lightly caramelized.
4
Grill
Sear the patty on a hot griddle over medium-high heat 3 to 4 minutes per side until a browned crust forms and the center reaches 71C, melting cheddar on top.
5
Plate
Toast the brioche cut-side down 1 minute, spread barbecue sauce, layer lettuce, tomato, patty, bacon and onion, cap, and serve hot.
