Cooking Tips

• For extra flavor, you can add some Worcestershire sauce or minced garlic to the ground beef before shaping it into patties.
• If you prefer a spicier burger, you can add some sliced jalapenos or hot sauce to the chipotle mayo sauce.
• To make the sautéed onions, heat some oil in a pan and cook the sliced onions until they are caramelized and golden brown.

Storage and Serving

• The Hot Mess Burger is best served immediately while the ingredients are still warm and the cheese is melted.
• If you have any leftovers, you can store the cooked patties, bacon, and sautéed onions in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• When ready to serve the leftovers, reheat the patties in a skillet or microwave until heated through, then assemble the burger with the remaining ingredients.
