I’ve seen this one in a few places, so I’m not sure who gets credit for inventing it. The first place I found it, though, was over at SeriousEats.com where they tend to have great stories about all kinds of food-related topics.
In October, they discussed the bacon hamburger fatty melt and let me tell you, my inner Smasteulator™ exploded. This thing is made of two bacon grilled cheese sandwiches, which are used as the bun for a bacon cheeseburger. That’s right, this sandwich is made by stacking bread, bacon, cheese, bread, burger, cheese, bacon, bread, cheese, bacon and bread. WOW!
It might not be medically advisable to make and eat this sandwich, but it does look so crazy tasty that I’m not sure if I can walk away.
I understand, of course, that this sandwich has the same ingredients as a standard bacon cheeseburger. The proportional balance is different, though, and the grilled bread is most definitely a unique addition.
So maybe I’ll make one, and try just one bite. (Okay, five bites.)

Though we can’t take sole credit for inventing it, we at A Hamburger Today (Serious Eats’ hamburger website) were the originating web source for this thing — the ones who got the bacon ball rolling.
We first did the Fatty Melt (which lacked bacon), which was inspired by a sandwich called the Chubby Melt, at the Mossy Creek Cafe in Fisherville, VA.
It’s like a bacon fractal.
man you may as well chicken fry the sumbitch
You have a good bacon cheeseburger going here. But, you have a separation problem. I have been doing these for years, and all you need to do is add two more cheese slices. The burger and bacon do not adhere to the breads unless you stack… bread,bacon,cheese,bread,cheese,burger,cheese,bacon,cheese,bread,bacon,cheese,bread.
And,once you pick it up and start enjoying it, do not do something dumb, like set it down to eat a forkful of the salad your wife is making you eat with it. Start it and finish it!!!
