Lunch: The Nut Burger

Ingredients

8 ounces center-cut bacon
1 teaspoon salted butter
8 ounces ground brisket
4 ounces ground top sirloin
4 ounces ground chuck
Coarse sea salt
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
8 tablespoons peanut butter
2 brioche buns

Instructions

Dice the bacon into small pieces. Cook in the butter in a nonstick pan until browned.
Have the local butcher grind the meat together. Form into 2 patties. Sprinkle each side with sea salt.
Heat a cast-iron pan until hot but not smoking. Coat with the olive oil. Cook the burgers for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium doneness.
Spread 2 tablespoons peanut butter on each side of the buns and add the bacon to the top half of the buns.
When the burgers are done, sprinkle with a little sea salt, then add them to the buns. Wait a minute for them to melt the peanut butter. Serve.
