1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 red onion, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices

1. Prepare grill for direct cooking. Shape beef into 4 patties about 3/4-inch thick. Cover and refrigerate.

3. Grill patties over medium-high heat, covered, 8 to 10 minutes {or uncovered, 13 to 15 minutes} until cooked through {160 degrees} or to desired degree of doneness, turning occasionally. Grill onion 4 minutes or until softened and slightly charred, turning occasionally.
4. Place patties on bottom halves of buns; top with onion, bacon and barbecue sauce mixture. Place lettuce and tomatoes on top halves of buns.
Serve open-faced on plate.
