This bacon cheeseburger is truly epic. Tonight, beef comes in for the win! It's lean, flavourful and pairs perfectly with rich and smoky bacon. To gild the lily, we've added melty white cheddar and zesty mayo.

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce. Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch wedges.Add potatoes, half the Montreal Steak Spice and 1 tbsp oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 baking sheets, with a quarter of the Montreal Steak Spice and 1 tbsp oil per sheet.) Season with salt, then toss to coat. Roast in the middle of the oven, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden-brown, 24-26 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, roast in the middle and bottom of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
Meanwhile, halve bacon strips crosswise.Arrange bacon strips on a foil-lined baking sheet. (TIP: For easy clean-up, leave foil overhanging on all sides!) Roast in the top of the oven until crispy, 8-10 min.** Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate.
Meanwhile, peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, 3-4 min. Add balsamic glaze and season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until dark golden-brown, 4-6 min. Remove from heat. Transfer onions to a small bowl. Carefully rinse and wipe the pan clean.
Combine beef, breadcrumbs and remaining Montreal Steak Spice in a medium bowl.Form mixture into two 4-inch-wide patties (4 patties for 4 ppl). Reheat the same pan over medium.When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then patties. Pan-fry until cooked through, 4-5 min per side.** Sprinkle cheese over patties. Cover and set aside, off heat, to melt cheese.
Meanwhile, halve buns.Arrange buns directly on the top rack of the oven, cut-side up. Toast until golden-brown, 3-5 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on them so they don't burn!)Add mayo and mustard to another small bowl. Season with pepper, then stir to combine.
Divide caramelized onions between top buns. Spread some zesty mayo on bottom buns, then stack with patties, arugula and spinach mix and bacon. Close with top buns. Divide burgers and potato wedges between plates. Serve remaining zesty mayo on the side for dipping.
