Servings

Ingredients

3 pounds Ground Beef
½ cup finely chopped ham
½ cup finely chopped bologna
½ cup finely chopped cooked bacon plus 6 slices of cooked bacon
kosher salt and pepper
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter melted
8 slices American cheese
One 16-ounce Hawaiian bun
mayo
mustard
¼ white onion thinly sliced
15 pickle slices
10 tomato sliced (about 2 whole tomatoes)
10 iceberg lettuce leaves
French Fries for serving

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ham, bologna and chopped bacon with your hands. Season with salt and pepper and shape into a large hamburger using your hands or a 9-inch springform pan.
Heat a large oven-proof skillet over moderately high heat and brush with 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Sear the burger on both sides, flipping carefully, until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for about 1 hour, or until the internal temperature reaches at least 160°F. Transfer your burger to a plate.
Layer the cheese on top of the burger while it’s still hot. While the cheese starts to melt, add the rest of the butter to the skillet and toast the bun over medium heat.
Once your bun is toasted, slather mustard on the bottom bun and mayo on the top bun. Add your hamburger to the bottom bun and top with bacon. Finish with onion, pickles, tomatoes, and lettuce. Enjoy with fries!
