It may sound silly to Koreanize burgers and add pancetta, but I did it. It made sense since pancetta is pig belly and a Korean favorite. At least for me. Sometimes you must take risks to create something great.
Saltiness varies in pancetta. Sprinkle extra salt to patties before cooking if pancetta isn't salty. Most burgers go well with chips, but try Lotus Root Chips instead of potatoes.
