Instrucciones
- 1
Make the burger sauce: In a small Mixing Bowl, stir together the Mayonnaise, Ketchup, Yellow Mustard, Dill Pickle Relish, and Smoked Paprika until combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Cook the Bacon: Lay Bacon strips in a cold Skillet and set over ^[medium heat]. Cook, turning occasionally, for 8–10 minutes until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour off most of the Bacon fat, leaving a thin coating in the pan.

Form the patties: Divide the Ground Beef into 4 equal portions (about 6 oz each). Gently shape each into a round patty about ¾-inch thick. Use your thumb to press a shallow dimple into the center of each patty — this prevents them from puffing up during cooking. Season both sides generously with Kosher Salt, Black Pepper, Garlic Powder, and Onion Powder. Drizzle Worcestershire Sauce over the tops.

Cook the patties: Heat the same Skillet (with residual Bacon fat) over ^[medium-high heat] until just beginning to smoke. Add the patties dimple-side up. Cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes until a deep brown crust forms on the bottom. Flip once.
- 5
Add cheese and melt: After flipping, cook for another 2–3 minutes for ^[medium] (%[internal temp 160°F] for well-done). In the last 60 seconds, lay a slice of American Cheese on each patty. Cover the Skillet with a lid or Aluminum Foil to trap steam and melt the cheese fully.
- 6
Toast the buns: While the patties rest, place Brioche Burger Buns cut-side down in the Skillet over ^[medium heat] for 1–2 minutes until golden and lightly toasted.
- 7
Assemble the burgers: Spread burger sauce on both the top and bottom Brioche Burger Buns. Layer the bottom bun with Romaine Lettuce, a Tomato slice, and Red Onion. Place the cheesy patty on top, then lay 2 strips of Bacon across the cheese. Add Dill Pickles if using, then cap with the top bun. Serve immediately.
