Ingredients
- 1 lb. ground beef chuck meat
- ½ tsp. each kosher salt and black pepper
- ¼ tsp. each garlic powder and paprika
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 4 slices of bacon, cut in half
- 4 slices extra sharp cheddar cheese
- 4 leaves romaine lettuce
- 4 slices tomatoes
- 4 Brioche buns
For the Pickled Peppers:
- 2 red bell peppers
- 1 tbsp. rice wine vinegar
- ¼ tsp. each sugar and kosher salt
For the Dijon Mayonnaise:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp. ketchup
Instructions
- Begin by making the Pickled Peppers: preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put the peppers on a sheet pan and roast them for one hour. Remove the skins and seeds and dice the peppers. Put them in a small bowl and mix in the rest of the ingredients.
- Next make the Dijon mayonnaise: Mix together all the ingredients in a small bowl.
- Finally, make the cheeseburgers: Sprinkle the beef with the salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Then, form it in to four patties. Heat a cast iron skillet on high heat. Also, in a medium skillet on medium heat, cook the bacon until it's crispy. Drizzle the cast iron skillet with a little olive oil, and cook the burgers to your desired doneness. When they're almost done, melt a slice of cheese on each burger.
- Place the burgers on the bun and top with the lettuce, tomato, Dijon mayonnaise, bacon, and pickled peppers.
