Ingredients 🛒
- 1½ lbs ground beef (80/20 blend for juicy results)
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- ½ cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 4 brioche burger buns
- Butter, for toasting buns
- Lettuce, tomato, pickles, and condiments of choice for serving
Directions 👨🍳
1. Mix the Patties
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with ranch seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Gently fold in the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese.
Form into 4 equal-sized patties, handling as little as possible for tender burgers.
2. Cook the Burgers
Heat a skillet or grill to medium-high.
Cook the patties for 4–5 minutes per side, or until they reach your preferred doneness.
Optional: During the last minute, top with extra cheddar cheese and cover to melt.
3. Toast the Buns
Spread a little butter on the cut sides of the brioche buns. Toast them on the skillet or grill until golden and crisp.
4. Assemble & Serve
Layer each bun with lettuce, a juicy crack burger patty, tomato, pickles, and your favorite sauces (think mayo, BBQ sauce, or ranch). Top with the other half of the bun and serve hot.
Tips for the Best Crack Burgers
- Don’t overwork the beef when mixing – it keeps the patties juicy and tender.
