Preheat flat top griddle or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Gently form each portion of beef into a cylindrical disk about 2 inches tall. Season with salt and pepper. Add beef portions to griddle or skillet, and press down with a firm metal spatula to match the diameter of the doughnut. Cook without moving until a crust develops and to desired doneness. Top with a slice of cheese. Hold warm.
Prepare potato pancakes according to the package instructions. Hold warm.
To build each sandwich; top a doughnut with one prepared burger, a potato pancake, 1 oz. of jelly, 2 slices of bacon, and a fried egg. Finish by topping with another doughnut.
