BURGER INSTRUCTIONS

1
Slice the tomatoes into 16 pieces. Peel the onion and slice it into thin rings. Grill the bacon on a medium-hot grill until golden brown on both sides and set aside.
2
Form the meat into 4 patties the size of the buns, season with salt and pepper on both sides, and brush with melted butter. Place on a medium-hot grill and grill for 3 minutes. Then flip the meat, brush again with melted butter, and grill for another 2 minutes. After that, place 1 slice of cheese on each piece of meat and grill for another 1 minute. Place the cooked meat on a plate.
3
Slice the buns lengthwise and grill them cut-side down.
4
Spread 1 tablespoon of flavored mayonnaise on each bun half. On the bottom half of the bun, place some iceberg lettuce, 2 slices of tomato, then the grilled meat with cheese, another 2 slices of tomato, grilled bacon, and onion rings. Cover with the top half of the bun.

FLAVORED MAYONNAISE INSTRUCTIONS

1
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate for 10 minutes.

Tip

Do not overcook the meat. It should remain red, or at most pink, inside, like a classic steak. This is the only way the meat will stay juicy.

Tip: For an especially delicate flavor, you can finish the sauce with a drop of lemon juice. Homemade spaetzle or wide noodles, which perfectly soak up the creamy sauce, are an excellent side dish.
