Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Cook the 2 bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, leaving the fat in the pan.

  2. Step 2

    Season the 1 beef patty with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook in the same skillet over medium-high heat for 3 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through.

  3. Step 3

    Place the 1 cheese slice on the patty during the last minute of cooking, covering the pan to melt it. Remove the patty and set aside.

  4. Step 4

    Fry the 1 egg in the remaining fat over medium heat until the white is set and the yolk is still runny, about 2 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  5. Step 5

    Toast the 1 burger bun in the skillet for 1 minute. Assemble: bottom bun, patty with cheese, bacon, egg, top bun. Serve hot.
