🛒 Premium Ingredients
- 🥩 1 lb Ground Beef (80/20 fat ratio for juiciness)
- 🥓 4 Strips of Thick-Cut Bacon
- 🥑 1 Ripe Avocado (Smashed or Sliced)
- 🧀 2 Slices of Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- 🥯 2 Brioche Buns (Toasted)
- 🥬 Fresh Butter Lettuce & Heirloom Tomato
- 🧂 Sea Salt, Cracked Black Pepper & Garlic Powder
👩🍳 The Gourmet Build
- Patty Prep: Divide the beef into two balls. Gently press into flat patties. Season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Sear: Heat a cast-iron skillet to high. Sear the patties for 3-4 minutes per side. Add cheese during the last minute and cover to melt.
- Crisp: Fry the bacon until perfectly crisp. Toast the brioche buns in the leftover bacon fat for extra flavor.
- Assemble: Spread a layer of mayo on the bun, followed by lettuce, the juicy patty, crispy bacon, and a mountain of avocado.
- Finish: Close the bun and secure with a skewer for that professional look.
💡 Pro Secrets
- ✅ Don't Overwork: Handle the meat as little as possible to keep it tender and juicy.
- ✅ The Thumb Dent: Press your thumb into the center of the patty before cooking to prevent it from bulging.
- ✅ Resting: Let the patty rest for 2 minutes after cooking to lock in all the juices.
🤔 Burger Secrets
What is the best beef for burgers?
We recommend an 80/20 chuck blend for the perfect balance of fat and flavor.
Can I make it low-carb?
Absolutely! Swap the brioche bun for a large lettuce wrap. It's still delicious!
How do I keep my avocado from browning?
Toss the avocado in a little lime juice right after slicing to keep it bright green for your photos.
