Cook the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
Prepare the vegetables: wash the lettuce leaves, slice the tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion.
Season the ground beef patties with salt and pepper on both sides. Preheat a skillet over medium heat and cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side, until a golden-brown crust forms.
When the patties are almost done, place a slice of cheddar on each and cover the skillet to allow the cheese to melt.
Toast the hamburger buns in a skillet or on a grill until the cut sides are golden brown and crispy.
Assemble the burgers: spread BBQ sauce on the bottom bun, then add a lettuce leaf, the cheeseburger patty, two slices of bacon, tomato and onion slices, and top with crispy fried onions.
Place the top bun on the burger and gently press down. Serve with french fries or corn on the cob.
