Step 1
Divide the 1 lb ground beef into 2 equal patties, about 1 inch thick, and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Cook the 4 bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes, then transfer to a paper towel and pour off all but 1 tbsp of the fat.
Step 3
In the same skillet, cook the patties over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes per side until browned and cooked through, then top each with a cheese slice and cover for 30 seconds to melt.
Step 4
Toast the 2 buns cut-side down in the skillet for 1 minute until golden, then spread with sauce (ketchup, mayo, or mustard).
Step 5
Assemble: place a patty on each bun bottom, top with 2 bacon slices, sliced tomato, and sliced onion, then add the bun top and serve.
