Ingredients

  1. ground beef - 180 grams (aged dairy fat mince, 25% fat ratio)
  2. salt - watch the video to see (to taste)
  3. burger bun - 1
  4. American cheese slices - watch the video to see
  5. bacon - watch the video to see
  6. lettuce - watch the video to see
  7. burger sauce - watch the video to see (big or small)
  8. black pepper - watch the video to see (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Form the Patty: Press the ground beef into a perfect cylinder, about 10% larger than the bun to account for shrinkage during cooking.
  2. Cook the Patty: Cook the patty on both sides until nicely colored. Aim for a medium cook.
  3. Rest the Patty: Let the patty rest briefly after cooking.
  4. Prepare the Bun: Warm the bun in the oven for a minute and a half to make the outside crispy and the inside fluffy. Do not toast the inside.
  5. Assemble the Burger: Place the cheese on the patty to melt slightly, then add the bacon, lettuce, and burger sauce. Season with black pepper.
