BACON SWISS BURGER

• If using a charcoal grill, open the bottom vent of a charcoal grill completely. Light a charcoal chimney starter filled with charcoal. When the coals are covered with gray ash, pour them onto the bottom grate of the grill. Adjust the vents as needed to maintain an internal temperature of 400°F (204°C).If using a gas grill, preheat to medium-high (400°F | 204°C).
• While the grill is heating, loosely form the beef into six 1/3-pound (151 g) patties, about 1-inch (25-mm) thick. Season each patty with salt and pepper.
• Once the grill reaches 400°F (204°C), place a large, seasoned cast-iron skillet on the grill grate over direct heat and let the skillet heat for 2 minutes.
• Add 3 of the patties to the skillet and gently smash each once with a spatula. You should hear a sizzle. Cook undisturbed and uncovered, until they develop a sear, 3 to 3 1/2 minutes, depending on how well done you like your burgers.
• Flip the patties, and cook to the desired doneness, 2 to 3 1/2 minutes for medium-rare.
• Divvy half of the bacon and cheese among the patties, cover the grill, and cook just until the cheese has melted, 30 to 45 seconds. Transfer the patties to a plate and keep warm while repeating with the second batch.
• If desired, add the buns to the hot skillet, cut-sides down, working in batches again, and toast in the pan drippings until lightly browned, about 1 minute.
• Generously spread some of the mayonnaise on the cut sides of each toasted bun, add the burgers, and top with your desired toppings. Sandwich 'em up and serve immediately.
