Ingredients

1 pound Ground Beef 80/20 fat-to-lean ratio for juicy burgers

4 slices Bacon Precooked until crispy
2 each Eggs Fried to your preferred doneness with runny yolk as the key feature

2 tablespoons Butter For toasting the buns

For Garlic Mayo:

Equipment

Skillet or Grill
Spatula (for flipping the patties)
Mixing bowl (for the mayo)

Cooking thermometer (optional)

Method

Prepare the Patties: Mix ground beef with salt and shape into 2 patties. Make an indent in the center to reduce shrinkage.
Cook the Patties: Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 4 minutes per side, adding cheese in the last minute. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
Toast the Buns: Butter the brioche buns and toast them in the same skillet until golden and crispy.
Fry the Eggs: Add butter to the skillet and cook eggs until whites are set and yolks remain runny, about 3-4 minutes.
Assemble the Burger: Place the burger patty on the toasted bun, add crispy bacon, fresh avocado, and a fried egg. Top with garlic mayo.
Serve: Serve the burger immediately for a satisfying, rich experience.
