- b. Adjust cooking time for your preferred level of doneness.
While the burgers are cooking, prepare the eggs:
- a. In a separate pan, heat the reserved bacon fat over medium heat.
- b. Crack and cook 6 eggs sunny-side up or to your preferred level of doneness.
When the burgers are almost done, add a slice of smoked Romblon cheese on top of each patty:

Toast the crusty rolls:

- d. Sprinkle crumbled bacon on top.

Notes
Cook the bacon until it's crisp and crumble it while still warm for better texture.
Use ground chuck and ground sirloin for a flavorful and juicy burger.
Mix the ranch dip mix and breadcrumbs into the burger mixture evenly.
When forming burger patties, make an indentation in the center to prevent bulging during cooking.
Choose high-quality smoked Romblon cheese for a richer flavor.
Customize the burger by adding your favorite condiments or vegetables.
Serve the burger immediately to enjoy it at its best.
