Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger Recipe

American · Main course · 20 min total

A classic fast-food-style junior bacon cheeseburger with a smoky-sweet sauce, crispy bacon, and melted cheese, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
• 4 slices American cheese
• 8 slices bacon
• 4 hamburger buns
• 4 leaves lettuce
• 4 slices tomato
• 2 tbsp ketchup
• 2 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp yellow mustard
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp sugar
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook bacon until crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
2. In a small bowl, mix ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar to make the sauce.
3. Divide ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape into thin patties, slightly larger than the buns. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Cook patties on the grill or skillet for 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness. During the last minute, top each patty with a slice of cheese and cover to melt.
5. Toast buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.
6. Assemble burgers: spread sauce on both halves of each bun. Place lettuce, tomato, a cheese-topped patty, and 2 slices of bacon on each bottom bun. Cover with top bun.
7. Serve immediately.

Tips

• For extra flavor, add pickles or onion slices.
• Adjust sauce ingredients to taste; add hot sauce for a kick.
• Store leftover sauce in the fridge for up to a week.
