Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breakfast sausage and salt, then form the mixture into 8 two-ounce balls.
  2. Preheat a large skillet on the stove, griddle, or flat top, over medium-high heat.
  3. When hot, add the vegetable oil to the griddle and place the buns face-down on the griddle. Toast the hamburger buns for approximately 1 minute, or until browned around the edges.
  4. Remove the buns from the griddle, spread bacon jam on each of the bottom buns, and add half of a smashed avocado on the top bun.
  5. Crack four eggs onto the griddle and cook for 4-6 minutes, or until the whites are set. Use a spatula to remove the eggs and set them aside.
  6. Turn the heat on the griddle up to high.
  7. Spray the back of a large flat metal spatula with cooking spray.
  8. Place each of the balls of ground beef and sausage on the hot griddle. Use the back of the spatula to smash the ground beef into flattened burger patties. Cook for 1 minute.
  9. Flip the burgers and place a piece of cheese on half of the burger patties.
  10. Place the other burger patties, not topped with cheese, on top of the cheese-topped burger patties. Add one of the fried eggs on top of each burger.
  11. Cook for 30 seconds, then remove the burgers from the griddle and place them on the prepared buns.

Notes

  • Instead of bacon jam, you can simply add slices of cooked bacon to these burgers. Use my oven-baked bacon recipe to cook up some crispy bacon and add it the burgers.
  • Always prep the buns and toppings before cooking the burgers. These burgers literally cook in 2 minutes, so you want to make sure the buns are toasted and topped with the bacon jam, smashed avocado, and whatever toppings you’re adding to the burgers, before actually cooking the burgers.
  • Always make sure the griddle is hot before adding the burgers. Adding burgers (or any food for that matter) to a hot surface is important for cooking safety. It will also give you a beautiful sear on the outside, while keeping the burgers super juicy on the inside. These breakfast burgers are a variation of smash burgers, which should always be cooked over high heat, between 400-450 degrees fahrenheit.
  • If you don’t have a griddle, or flat top, you can make the burgers in a skillet. Depending on the size of your skillet, you’ll probably only be able to fit 2, or maybe 4, burger patties in the skillet at a time. I recommend a cast iron skillet, or cast iron griddle pan if you have one available. A cast iron skillet can be used on the stove, or on a grill, to make these burgers.
