In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and lemon juice.
Adjust heat or sweetness to taste. Set aside.
Step 2: Cook the Beef Patties
Season ground beef with salt and pepper.
Form into 4 patties slightly smaller than your bread slices.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, cook patties 3–4 minutes per side until desired doneness.
Add a slice of cheese on top during the last minute to melt.
Step 3: Assemble the Sandwiches

Spread more Bang-Bang sauce on the top slice if desired.

Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Place sandwiches in skillet and press gently.
Cook 2–3 minutes per side until bread is golden brown and crispy, cheese melted inside.
