In a cast iron skillet, cook all your chopped bacon until crisp. Once cooked, remove and place on paper towel. Drain grease separately and save.

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, 2/3 chopped bacon, and the rest of the spices.

Mix meat and spices together well, then form into 9 patties.

Put 2 Tbsp. Bacon Fat into cast iron and place patties inside once fat is hot.

Cook about 4-5 minutes on each side (3-4 patties at a time), depending on the doneness you want.

Remove from pan, let rest for 3-5 minutes, and serve with cheese, extra bacon, and onion if you'd like.
