5 oz 93% lean ground beef

1 slice center-cut bacon

0.5 oz sharp cheddar cheese

0.5 tsp avocado oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Place the bacon slices in a cold skillet and turn the heat to medium; cook until crispy, then transfer to a paper towel to drain.

• 2

  In a small bowl, combine the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, then form into two equal-sized slider patties.

• 3

  Wipe out the skillet and add avocado oil over medium-high heat.

• 4

  Sear the beef patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and they reach your desired level of doneness.

• 5

  Place the cheddar cheese on top of the patties during the last minute of cooking and cover the pan briefly to melt.

• 6

  Lightly toast the slider buns in the pan until golden brown.

• 7

  Assemble the sliders by layering the lettuce, tomato, and pickles on the bottom buns, followed by the cheesy patties and crispy bacon slices.
