Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crack Burgers
  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients: ground chuck, ranch dressing mix, crispy bacon, and cheese.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine your ground chuck with the ranch dressing mix and crumbled bacon.
  3. Shape your mixture into burger patties of about 3/4-inch thickness, making a slight indent in the center of each.
  4. Carefully place the patties on your preheated grill or skillet, cooking for about 5-6 minutes on each side.
  5. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty when almost done, covering with a lid to melt.
  6. Assemble your burger with buns, patties, and desired toppings.
