Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 4 slices of sharp cheddar cheese

- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lettuce, tomato, pickles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or stovetop pan to medium-high heat.

- Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
- Add cheese slices to the patties during the last minute of cooking to let them melt.
- Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster.
- Spread ranch dressing on both halves of the buns.
- Assemble the burgers by layering the patty, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and pickles (if using) between the buns.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- For an extra kick, add a few dashes of hot sauce to the ranch dressing.
- You can substitute turkey or chicken for the beef if you prefer a leaner option.
