# How to Make It:

In a large bowl, gently mix the ground beef with ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing to maintain a tender texture.
02 -
Divide the beef mixture and form into 4 to 6 patties of even thickness as preferred.
03 -
Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until your desired doneness. Place shredded cheddar cheese on each patty during the final minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
04 -
While the patties are cooking, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and crumbled turkey bacon in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
05 -
Toast burger buns lightly in a pan or in the oven until golden for improved flavor and texture.
06 -
Spread crack sauce on both the top and bottom halves of each bun. Place the cheesy beef patty on the bottom bun and add additional toppings such as lettuce, tomato, and pickles as desired.
07 -
Serve assembled burgers hot accompanied by fries or potato chips.
# Extra Suggestions:

Do not overwork the beef mixture to maintain burger tenderness.
