  1. Cook the Bacon: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook bacon until crispy, about 6-8 minutes, then drain on paper towels.

  3. Prepare the Beef Patties: Mix ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Form into patties.
  4. Grill the Patties: Cook patties on medium-high for 3-4 minutes each side, adding cheddar in the last minute.
  5. Make the Sauce: Mix sour cream and Dijon mustard in a small bowl until well combined.
  6. Toast the Buns: Melt butter in a skillet and toast the brioche buns cut-side down for 2-3 minutes.
  7. Assemble the Irish Pub Burgers: Layer the bottom bun with patty, onions, bacon, and sauce, then top with the other half.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Serve hot with fries or chips.
