fried egg cheese burger
INGREDIENTS
▢4 hamburger patties
▢4 slices cheese
▢8 slices bacon
▢4 Tbsp butter divided
▢4 eggs
▢4 lettuce leaves
▢4 buns
▢Salt & Pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
Heat a gas grill to high heat. When it reaches 350 – 400 degrees F place burgers on grill grate. Grill the first side about 3 minutes or until golden brown and slightly charred. Flip over burgers. Cook an additional 6 minutes or until it reaches desired doneness. When you have one minute left of grilling time place a slice of cheese on top of burger and let it melt.
While burgers are cooking you will want to fry your eggs either on a skillet on the stove or on the grill. Heat a pan with 2 Tbsp butter over medium high heat. When the butter foams, break the eggs into the pan, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Reduce the heat to low and season the eggs with salt and pepper. Cover the pan and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are just beginning to firm around the edge, about 5 minutes.
You will also want to prepare your bacon according to directions on package while burger is cooking.
While burgers are cooking butter the insides of the buns with 2 Tbsp butter. Place buns, butter side down, on grill grates to toast. Remove from grill when they are lightly toasted.
When the burgers are done, remove from grill place on toasted bun and top with lettuce, bacon and egg!
