- In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
- While the burgers cook, toast the hamburger buns lightly in a pan or oven.
- Assembly:
- Spread a generous amount of cowboy butter on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
- Layer with a slice of tomato, two cheeseburger patties, three onion rings, half of the crumbled bacon, and jalapeno slices.
- Drizzle with barbecue sauce and garnish with any additional toppings you prefer.
