Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 200 °F (about 95 °C) and warm the buns during the burger prep.
2. Scoop out a little bread from the cut sides of each roll, then brush the insides with melted garlic butter. Close, wrap in foil and warm on the oven rack for no more than 20 minutes.
3. Mix the ground chuck, bacon, paprika, salt and a few grinds of pepper gently with your fingers. Divide into 4 equal portions.
4. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a griddle pan over high heat. Roll each portion into a ball, place on the pan and press into a patty slightly wider than the rolls.
5. Cook until the patties release easily, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip, top each with a slice of cheese and cook another 2 to 3 minutes, until cooked through and the cheese has melted.
6. While the patties cook, char the whole jalapeño on the pan on all sides, then finely chop it, removing the seeds for less heat if you like.
7. Whisk the hot sauce and maple syrup together. Take the rolls out of the oven and unwrap them.
8. Place a patty on each roll bottom, drizzle with the maple hot sauce, add some jalapeño, then a fried egg, and more hot sauce if you like.
