Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend)

Time
Instructions
Form the patties
Divide ground beef into 4 equal portions. Form into patties slightly larger than your buns (they'll shrink). Make a small indent in the center of each patty. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Cook the burgers
Heat a cast iron skillet or grill over high heat. Cook patties for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.
Add cheese
In the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of cheddar. Cover to melt.
Toast the buns
Butter the cut sides of the brioche buns and toast until golden.
Assemble
Spread mayo on the bottom bun. Add lettuce, tomato, the cheesy patty, and a generous spoonful of Bacon Onion Jam. Top with bun.
Serve
Serve immediately with your favorite pickles and fries.
