1

Preheat the oven broiler.
2

In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef and bread crumbs. Add the eggs, onion, salt, and pepper; mix thoroughly. Form 6 thick patties. Wrap bacon around the outer edge of each patty and secure it with a toothpick or kitchen string.
3

Place the patties on a rack in a broiler pan or casserole dish and broil 5 inches from the heat source for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and flip the patties.
4

In a small bowl, mix the ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard. Spoon the mixture over the patties, then return them to the broiler for 5 minutes more, or until the meat is firm and no longer pink in the center.
