Steps:
- 1. Preheat a grill over high heat. Divide the meat into four 6-ounce balls. Press 4 small cubes of cheese into the center of each ball and flatten into a 1/2-inch-thick patty about 4 inches in diameter, making sure the cheese stays wrapped in the meat. Sprinkle both sides of the patties evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Wrap each burger in a piece of nonstick aluminum foil, twisting any excess foil at each end so the burger is wrapped in a single layer of foil only. Mix the ketchup and Worcestershire together in a small bowl.
- 2. Grill the burgers for 5 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and carefully open up the foil packets, allowing the steam to escape. Place the opened foil packets back on the grill, add a spoonful of sauce to the top of each patty and continue to cook until the patty is cooked to at least medium to allow the cheese inside to fully melt, another 4 to 6 minutes.
- 3. On the bottom half of each bun, spread a bit of sauce and top with a lettuce leaf, onion slice and tomato slice. Top with a patty, another spoon of the remaining sauce and the top of the bun. Serve with chips or fries.

Steps:
- Slice the cheese into sticks (about the size of string cheese).

- Flatten each ball out into a rectangle.
- Place a cheese stick towards the bottom. Roll it up, making sure that the ground beef is evenly concealing the cheese stick.
- Place the soon-to-be burger dogs on a hot grill. Grill for 6-10 minutes, turning the dogs when charred grill marks appear on a side. You'll need to do 3-4 turns (or more) to make sure you have even cooking around each dog.

- Serve on hot dog buns with your favorite burger or hot dog condiments.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion with a good pinch of salt for 15 mins until soft and translucent. Add the pancetta and cook for 5 mins more, then add the garlic and thyme, and cook for 2 mins. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for 15 mins.
- Tip the mince into a large bowl. Massage with your hands for 5 mins to tenderise the meat, then add the cooled onion mix, the breadcrumbs and egg yolk. Season generously. Divide evenly into four, weighing for accuracy, if you like. Mix the cheddar and mozzarella together. Form the beef portions into patties, patting each into a 10cm round. Divide the cheese mixture into four, and, in your hands, form each portion into a firm ball, then press into a roughly 4cm disc. Working one at a time, put a cheese disc into the centre of a beef patty, then bring the meat around the cheese to cover. Lightly pat with the palm of your hand to flatten slightly, then chill, covered, for at least 30 mins or up to 48 hrs.
- Make the sauce by whizzing the mayonnaise, mustard and herbs together in a small food processor. Stir through the gherkins, then cover and chill until ready to use.
- Light the barbecue. When the flames have died down, grill the burgers on each side for 4-5 mins until charred (if you don't have a barbecue, see tip, below). Wrap individually in foil and leave on the barbecue for 5-7 mins so the cheese centre melts.
- Grill the buns, cut-side down, for 1-2 mins until toasted. Spread all the cut sides with the sauce, then fill with the beef patties, lettuce, tomatoes and crispy onions.

Tips:
- Choose the right ground beef: For the best flavor and texture, use a blend of 80% lean and 20% fat ground beef.
- Season the beef well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to season the beef. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Mix the cheese in gently: Don't overmix the cheese into the beef, or it will become tough. Just mix it in until it is evenly distributed.
- Form the patties gently: Handle the beef mixture gently when forming the patties, or they will become tough. Just shape them into loose balls and then flatten them into patties.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat: Cook the burgers over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning. This will also help to prevent the cheese from melting out.
- Let the burgers rest before serving: Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving so that the juices can redistribute. This will make them more flavorful and juicy.
