THE BEST BACON CHEESEBURGER
While we love a grilled burger, this one is our go-to for all seasons. Instead of making a typical patty, we smash the meat in a super-hot cast-iron pan to get crispy, ruffled edges. Once you smash your burgers this way, you'll never go back! We top them with all the fixings, including our perfectly balanced special sauce. It's what we consider an iconic burger.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish and vinegar in a small bowl; set aside.
- Working in batches if necessary, add the bacon to a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook, flipping halfway through, until crisp and golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a nonstick baking sheet. Discard the bacon fat (or save for another use) and wipe the skillet clean but do not wash. Heat over medium-high heat until very hot, about 5 minutes.
- Add the buns split-side up to the baking sheet with the bacon and bake until the buns are toasted, about 5 minutes.
- Loosely form the beef into 4 balls. Add one ball of beef to the skillet and press firmly to flatten with a large flat metal spatula for 10 seconds, then gently remove the spatula. Sprinkle the patty generously with salt; repeat with the remaining beef balls, cooking in batches if necessary. Let cook, undisturbed, until well browned on the bottoms, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the patties, sprinkle with more salt and top each with a slice of Cheddar. Continue cooking until the cheese is melted around the edges and the bottoms are browned, about 2 more minutes.
- Spread the mayonnaise mixture on the bun tops. Serve the patties on the bottom buns topped with the bacon, onion, tomato and lettuce.

Steps:
- Grilling Method: Direct/Medium Heat
- Mix the ground chuck and the ground sirloin together with a fork or with your hands. Season it lightly with salt and pepper, and mix just to combine. You do not want to over-mix the meat.
- Gently shape the ground meat into six burgers of equal size and thickness (about 3/4-inch-thick). Brush both sides of the burgers with oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Place burgers on cooking grate and grill until meat is to the desired level of doneness. The USDA recommends cooking all ground meat until no longer pink, about 10 to 12 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking time.
- Top each burger with a slice of cheese during the last couple of minutes so the cheese will melt. Remove from grill and top each burger with 2 pieces of bacon. Let the burgers rest 2 to 3 minutes to reabsorb the juices.
- Serve hot on the buns with lettuce, tomato, and the traditional burger condiments (mayo, mustard, ketchup) if desired.
