Bacon grease or GTFO

Is this even a question? Did you seriously just ask if you should use bacon grease to fry a burger?

Now… How was it?

Yes...much to my shame, I've never tried it.
In point of fact, I have fried burgers only a few times.
I don't have a wide spatula for smashing, so I read a tip - take some non-stick foil and wrap around the bottom of a saucepan. Use that to smash the burger. Worked really well.
The downside is a lot of spatter and a lot of smoke.
Now… How was it?
I have a stovetop griddle that I used and they came out really nice. Only used salt and grilled onion. Oh, a piece of cheese as well. No ketchup, mustard or anything else.
