In a large mixing bowl add the ground beef, egg, seasoning and bread crumbs. Gently mix together until combined.
Divide into 6 even balls. The easiest way to ensure the portions are equal is to use a kitchen scale. Once balls are formed apply pressure with your hand to flatten. Place formed patties in the fridge and chill for an hour.
Prepare the Toppings
Cook the bacon. (I find this is best done on a cookie sheet in a 400°F oven for 20 minutes)
Wash the vegetables
Thinly slice the lettuce, slice the tomatoes, slice the cheese, slice the tomatoes. Place on a plate and cover until ready to assemble the burgers
Cook the Burgers
You can cook these in which ever way you prefer. I personally love using my electric frying pan. It is large enough to comfortably fit 6 patties, can be covered with a lid and allows for an even sear on the whole surface of the patty.On Medium to High Heat: Sear the burger patties on each side. Refer to internal temperature guide in above write up to know how long to cook the patties. I cook mine to a minimum of 160°F for well done.Once burgers are nearly at desired internal temperature top with cheese and then bacon. Cover with lid to allow the steam to melt the cheese. Once cheese is melted assemble the burgers.
