For an extra layer of flavor, consider caramelizing some onions and adding them to the burger. Toasting the buns prevents them from becoming soggy. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preference for heat. Feel free to substitute your favorite cheese for the Cheddar.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large bowl, gently combine ground sirloin, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and cayenne pepper. Be careful not to overmix. Form into six (4-inch-wide) patties. Place on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate to firm up, about 30 minutes.
02
StepPreheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F) and lightly oil the grill grate.
03
StepWhile the grill heats, arrange bacon slices in a cold skillet and place over medium-high heat. Cook, turning occasionally, until crisp and deeply browned, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon fat.
04
StepBrush the burger patties with the reserved bacon fat for extra flavor. Place patties on the preheated grill and cook for about 4 minutes per side for medium doneness (internal temperature of 140°F/60°C). During the last minute of grilling, sprinkle shredded Cheddar cheese evenly over each patty, allowing it to melt slightly.
05
StepIn a microwave-safe bowl, combine peanut butter and maple syrup. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until slightly runny and easily spreadable, about 25-30 seconds total. Stir until smooth.
06
StepLightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster. Spread the peanut butter mixture generously over both halves of each bun. Assemble the burgers with lettuce, tomato slices, and crispy bacon, then top with the cheesy patties.
