Ingredients

For the hungry burgers:

Other ingredients:

4 large sesame seed burger buns
4 tbsp mayonnaise
4 medium lettuce leaves romaine or iceberg work well
4 slices cheddar cheese
8 rashers streaky bacon
16 medium pickle slices
oil for frying

Instructions

In a bowl, mix the beef mince with salt, pepper and garlic powder (if using).
500 g beef mince, 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp black pepper, 1 tsp garlic powder
Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into round patties slightly larger than your buns. Press a slight indent in the centre of each to help them cook evenly.
In a large frying pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy.
8 rashers streaky bacon
Remove and set aside on a plate lined with kitchen paper.
In the same pan, add a little oil if needed. Cook the patties for about 3–4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
oil
Add a slice of cheese on top of each patty during the final minute of cooking so it melts slightly.
4 slices cheddar cheese
While the burgers are cooking, slice the buns and toast them lightly in a dry pan, under the grill or my favourite in the pan with the juices.
4 large sesame seed burger buns
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Add a lettuce leaf, then place the hot burger patty with melted cheese on top. Layer with two rashers of bacon and finish with pickle slices. Top with the bun lid.
4 tbsp mayonnaise, 4 medium lettuce leaves, 16 medium pickle

Notes

Serve straight away with fries, wedges, or a side salad. Perfect for a weekend treat or casual get-together.
