8 slices Bacon
1 lb. Ground Beef
2 T. Worcestershire Sauce
1 T. Garlic Powder
½ tsp. each Salt & Pepper
1 Yellow Onion, sliced into ¾” rounds
4 thick slices sharp Cheddar Cheese
4 soft Hamburger Buns
Your Favorite Burger Condiments & Toppings

Preheat oven to 375 with one rack about 4 inches from the broiler and another rack in center position. Line sheet pan with foil. Line a plate with paper towels. Lie bacon slices flat on sheet pan. Bake on center rack, flipping halfway through until crisp, about 20 minutes. While bacon cooks, gently mix together beef, Worcestershire, garlic powder and salt and pepper in a bowl. Divide meat evenly into 4 portions and shape into patties, each about ¾” thick. Transfer bacon to the plate and set aside to drain. Carefully pour the bacon grease from the pan and replace the foil. Set a wire rack on the sheet pan and turn on the broiler. Place patties on the rack with some space between them. Arrange onion around them. If there isn’t enough room and some onions fall to the pan, that’s fine. Broil burgers and onions on upper rack for 3 minutes per side for medium rare. Top with cheese and broil until cheese is melted and bubbly, another 30-60 seconds. Serve on the buns topped with charred onions, crisp bacon, and your favorite condiments.
