📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a large bowl, gently combine the ground beef and breakfast sausage. Shape into 2 equal balls, place on a plate, loosely cover, and refrigerate until ready to cook.
2
On a griddle or in a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-low heat until crisp, 6 to ⏱️ 7 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate, leaving the drippings in the pan.

Increase the heat to medium, add the hash browns in 2 piles (1/2 cup each), and let cook, pressing down on the piles with the back of a large (non-slotted) spatula so they come into contact with the pan and spread slightly, until golden brown and crispy, about ⏱️ 5 minutes. If the pan looks dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons oil. Flip, and let cook ⏱️ 1 minute more, then place a ball of meat on top of each hash brown pile. Working one at a time, place a spatula on top of the meat and use a coffee mug or large measuring cup to press down on the spatula and smash the patties very flat. Season with salt and pepper and let cook until the bottom of the burger and hash browns are golden brown and crispy, about ⏱️ 2 minutes. Flip, press down with the spatula again to make sure the burger has full contact with the hot pan, and cook ⏱️ 1 minute more. Top each patty with a slice of American cheese, cover, and let melt, about ⏱️ 1 minute. Then transfer the patties to the buns.
