Reverse bacon and cheese burger

Step 1/9

• 2 cutting boards
• 1 knife
• 1 spatula (optional)

Gather all of your ingredients. Grate the cheese (or slice if desired).

Step 2/9

• 1 beef hamburger patty

• 1 cutting board
• 1 knife

Cut the burger in half so that you have 2, thinner burgers.

Step 3/9

• 20 g butter
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp pepper
• ½ tsp thyme

• 1 knife
• 1 cutting board

On the chopping board, butter the tops of the burgers then season with salt, pepper and a herb of your choosing (I used Thyme in this recipe).

Step 4/9

• 1 frying pan
• 1 spatula

In a pan over high heat, put the burgers face down so the side with the butter on starts cooking first. Time these to cook for 5 minutes.

Step 5/9

• 1 frying pan

While the first side is cooking, butter and season the side that is face up. Be careful of any spitting butter!

Step 6/9

• 1 frying pan
• 1 spatula

After the 5 minutes are up, turn the burgers over and again, cook this side for 5 minutes.

Step 7/9

Once the 5 minutes are up, leave the burgers aside to rest.

Step 8/9

• 2 slices bacon

Now put the 2 pieces of bacon in the pan to start cooking to your liking - they won’t take long though.
