Mix gently until the seasonings are evenly distributed. Avoid overmixing because this can make the burgers dense.
Shape the patties: Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty slightly wider than the burger buns.
Make a small indentation in the center of each patty so they cook evenly without puffing up.
Cook the bacon: Place the bacon in a skillet over medium heat and cook until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess grease.
