📝 Preparation Steps
1
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the bacon slices to the skillet. Cook until crisp, flipping as needed. This usually takes about ⏱️ 8-10 minutes, depending on thickness. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and set aside.

In the same skillet with the bacon fat (remove some if it's excessive), add the sliced onions. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, and push the onions to the side of the skillet or griddle.

Shape the beef into 4 patties. Season both sides of the patties with salt and ground black pepper.
4
Place the beef patties in the skillet and cook for ⏱️ 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness. Adjust the time based on your preferred level of doneness.
5
While the burgers are cooking, toast the bread. Heat a clean medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Butter each slice of bread on one side. Place the bread butter-side down in the skillet. Lay one slice of American cheese on each bread slice. Heat for 2 to ⏱️ 3 minutes or until the bread is toasted. Remove bread from the skillet.
