Preparation

1. Place Laura's 92% Lean ground beef in large bowl.

2. Place vinegar and water in small bowl and add all spices (sage through the cayenne) to liquid. Mix well then pour mixture over beef mixture. Mix gently but thoroughly to distribute the ingredients, but don’t over mix. Let beef rest in refrigerator at least an hour or as long as overnight.

3. Divide beef mixture into 4 equal-sized, thin patties. Saute in nonstick skillet over medium high heat; turn patties after about 4 minutes, lower heat slightly and cook another 4 minutes until no pink is left.

4. While patties cook, heat another non-stick skillet over medium high heat and cook the 4 eggs until no runny white is left; add bacon and frozen hash browns, cook to desired doneness.

5. Lay out 4 buns, open each and top each bottom round with lettuce. Place one patty on each bun. Top each with 1 teaspoon maple syrup, a slice of cheese (if using), then a cooked egg and bacon slices. Place burger bun tops on each burger and serve immediately.
