In a mixing bowl, combine ground chuck, ranch dressing mix, chopped bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix thoroughly until evenly blended.

Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into patties that are approximately 1/2 inch thick.

Heat a skillet or grill over medium heat and cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until browned and cooked through.

During the last minute, add a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt.

Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a bun and adding your preferred toppings.
