INSTRUCTIONS
1 In large frying pan or cast-iron skillet, cook bacon until crispy. Remove slices from skillet to drain on paper towel. Pour bacon fat from pan.
2 Shape ground beef into four burger patties, seasoning both sides of patties with salt and pepper.
3 In skillet over medium-high heat, cook burgers about 4 minutes per side for medium doneness.
4 Top each burger with one slice cheese then cover skillet with lid and cook until cheese melts. Remove from heat.
5 In smaller skillet, heat canola oil until hot but not smoking. Quickly crisp tortillas in oil, turning once and removing from pan within 1 minute. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
