Ingredients

4 servings

8 strips bacon
Chef's tip
Cook it like regular bacon. It's leaner and releases little fat, so add a splash of oil to the pan if needed.
1 ½ lbs ground beef (80/20)
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper
4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
Chef's tip
Shred it and warm it gently; dairy-free cheddar melts best baked into a dish.
4 hamburger buns, split
1 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.

For serving

lettuce, tomato, and condiments, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until crispy and deeply browned, about 8–10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and pour off all but about 1 tablespoon of the drippings from the skillet.
2
Combine the ground beef, scallions, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix gently with your hands until just combined — do not overwork the meat. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick, pressing a shallow dimple into the center of each with your thumb.
