Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 4 count gluten-free hamburger buns
- 4 slices sliced cheddar cheese
- 8 slices bacon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 1 medium, sliced tomato
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, add the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Step 3
Divide the ground beef mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties about 3/4-inch thick.
Step 4
Place the bacon slices in a separate pan over medium heat and cook until crispy. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
Step 5
Place the beef patties on the grill or pan and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
Step 6
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese over each patty and cover the grill or pan to melt the cheese.
Step 7
While the burgers are cooking, lightly toast the gluten-free buns on the grill or a separate pan until golden brown.
Step 8
To assemble the burgers, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.
Step 9
Place a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato on each bun, then top with the cheese-topped burger patty.
Step 10
Add two slices of bacon on top of each patty and finish with the top bun.
Step 11
Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
