→ Patties and spreads

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
02 -
1 lb ground beef (80/20 for juiciness)
03 -
Pepper as needed
04 -
Add salt as desired
05 -
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
06 -
Half a cup of sour cream
→ Buns and extras
07 -
Brioche buns (4 total)
08 -
4 slices of crispy bacon
09 -
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
10 -
Traditional Irish stout, 1/2 cup
11 -
1 large thinly sliced onion
12 -
Butter, for toasting buns
# Instructions:
01 -
In a skillet set to medium heat, fry bacon until crispy, then lay it on paper towels to soak up grease.
02 -
Using the bacon skillet, toss in the sliced onions and slowly cook on medium heat for 10-15 minutes until soft and golden. Pour in the stout and simmer until it thickens. Sprinkle some salt and pepper, and keep aside.
03 -
Combine the ground meat, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Shape into 4 even patties, making them a bit wider than your buns.
04 -
Heat up a grill or skillet to medium-high, and cook patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Add cheddar cheese on top during the last minute so it melts.
05 -
Stir together Dijon, sour cream, and a bit of salt in a tiny bowl. Leave nearby for assembly.
06 -
Melt a little butter in a frying pan, then toast the bun halves until they’re golden.
07 -
Layer up your burgers starting with the cheesy patty. Add onions, bacon, mustard sauce, and finish with the top bun. Serve while it’s warm!
# Notes:
01 -
Swap the beef for lamb for a more authentic Irish vibe. Add jalapeños or swap cheeses to experiment with flavors.
