Instructions
  1. Cook Bacon on high heat until almost crisp. Set aside.
  2. Cook Burger to order (4-5 minutes per side on high heat for Medium Rare). Add American Cheese approximately 30-60 seconds before Burger is done, and allow to melt. Use the Quick Steam method for a faster melt.
  3. Build Your Burger: Bottom Bun, Lettuce, Burger, Tomato, Bacon, Top Bun.
Recipe Notes

Quick Steam Method: Carefully place the slice of cheese onto the Burger. Use a restaurant condiment bottle to squirt water onto the grill around the Burger, then cover immediately with a pot lid or aluminum tray. Keep covered for 15-60 seconds (some cheeses take longer to melt than others). Remove cover to reveal beautifully melted cheese atop your Burger!

Remember: Adding water to a hot and or greasy surface can be dangerous. Be sure to take recommended safety precautions before attempting.
