Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Shape ground chuck into 4 equal patties, ensuring they are uniform in thickness for even cooking. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until perfectly crisp. Drain bacon slices on paper towels to remove excess grease. (10-12 minutes)

04

Step

In the same skillet (or a separate one), heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sauté onion slices in the hot oil until softened and lightly caramelized, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and set aside. (5-7 minutes)

05

Step

Place patties on the preheated grill and cook until browned and no longer pink inside, flipping halfway through. Top each patty with a slice of American cheese during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt. (8-10 minutes total, 4-5 minutes per side)

06

Step

While the burgers are grilling, crack eggs into a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook until the outer edges of the whites become opaque. Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and cook until the whites are completely set, while the yolks remain runny. (5 minutes total, 1 minute uncovered, 4 minutes covered)

07

Step

To assemble the burgers, place each patty on a bottom bun and top with a fried egg, 2 slices of crispy bacon, sautéed onions, a generous dollop of mayonnaise, and a bun top. Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a richer flavor, try using a blend of ground chuck and ground sirloin.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as cheddar, Swiss, or provolone.
If you prefer your eggs cooked harder, simply extend the cooking time slightly.
Add a touch of spice with a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
Serve with your favorite burger sides, such as French fries, onion rings, or coleslaw.
