Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Crack Burgers

Start by gathering all your ingredients for the Crack Burgers. Preheat your grill or skillet to medium heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chuck with the ranch dressing mix and crumbled bacon. Mix until just combined.
Shape the meat mixture into equal-sized burger patties, aiming for patties about ¾ inch thick.
Place the formed patties on your preheated grill or skillet, cooking for approximately 5-6 minutes per side.
During the final minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt.
Once the cheese has melted, assemble your Crack Burgers on a soft burger bun with your favorite toppings.
