Just because this burger has an egg on it doesn't mean it's a breakfast food (but it's so good you might not care)!

Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat grill or grill pan to medium high heat.
For the burger patties: In a large bowl, gently mix together all three of the ground meats. Divide the mixture in to 4 equal sections and lightly form in to burgers, being careful not to pack too tightly. Season both sides of the burgers with a good amount of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place the burgers on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, flipping only once. Add the cheese and cook for another minute until melted.
In the meantime, spread the mayonnaise on the cut side of the buns and place them on a clean side of the grill to toast.
In a small nonstick pan over medium heat, add a thin film of olive oil, and crack an egg into the pan. Fry the egg, undisturbed, until cooked to your liking, about 2 to 3 minutes for a slightly runny yolk.
Build the burgers by placing a patty on each bun. Top with 2 pieces of crispy bacon, some pickled red onion and a fried egg.
