Instructions

Step 1: Prep
Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Peel onion and cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
Slice tomato into 1/4-inch-thick rounds.
Halve buns.

Step 2: Bake Onion and Bacon
Place onion on one side of a second baking sheet; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Roast on middle rack for 10 minutes.
Remove sheet from oven. Place bacon on empty side. Sprinkle with brown sugar, pepper, and a pinch of chipotle powder.
Return to oven until bacon is caramelized and onion is lightly charred, 12-15 minutes.
TIP: Keep an eye on the bacon—thinner pieces will cook more quickly.

Step 3: Make Sauceg
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, and half the mustard seeds (you’ll use the rest later).
Season with salt and pepper.
Stir in a pinch of remaining chipotle powder to taste.

Step 4: Cook Beefbr> Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
In a medium bowl, mix beef with remaining mustard seeds and Fry Seasoning.
Form into patties; season generously with salt and pepper.
Add patties to pan and cook to desired doneness, 3-5 minutes per side.
In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top patties with pepper jack; cover pan until cheese melts.

Step 5: Finish and Serve
Toast buns until golden brown, 3-5 minutes.
Spread with a layer of sauce, then fill with patties, as much tomato and onion as you like, and bacon.
Divide burgers between plates.
Serve with remaining sauce on the side for dipping.
