Instructions

1

Divide ground beef into 4 balls and form into thin, wide patties (slightly larger than the bun).
2

Cook bacon in a skillet until crispy, remove and keep warm.
3

Melt cannabis butter in the same skillet. Stir in ketchup and mustard — cannabis grill sauce is ready.
4

Bring skillet to high heat. Cook patties 2 minutes per side. Let cheese melt on one patty, place second patty on top.
5

Toast buns briefly in the skillet.
6

Spread cannabis grill sauce on bun. Layer lettuce, tomato, onions, and pickles.
7

Add the double patty with bacon on top. Serve.

Pro Tips

Five Guys never uses frozen patties — fresh ground beef is essential. The cannabis butter in the sauce develops its full flavor when the beef is seared.
