ONE RECIPE, TWO MEALS: STUFFED BURGERS WITH SO. MUCH. CHEESE.



One Recipe, Two Meals: Stuffed Burgers with So. Much. Cheese. image

It's finally warm enough for the kids to play in the sprinklers while taking down 13 ice pops at once. And it's finally sunny enough for me to sit out on a blanket with a bottle of rose and watch them gallivant for hours and hours. Oh wait. I do that all year. What I don't normally do is stuff burgers. But I am bringing you beefy burgers filled with white Cheddar for the littles and pimento cheese for the adults!

Provided by Bev Weidner

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Pinch of salt
2 pounds ground beef
2 to 3 tablespoons shredded white Cheddar cheese
2 to 3 tablespoons homemade or store-bought pimento cheese
4 burger buns, split and lightly toasted
Apple wedges, chips or fries, for serving

Steps:

  • For a relish for the adult burgers, combine the cherry tomatoes, parsley leaves, minced garlic and olive oil in a small bowl. Season with a pinch of salt, and toss everything together. You can do this ahead of time and chill it in the fridge.
  • Divide the ground beef into 4 patties. You can make the kid patties slightly smaller, or they can have leftovers.
  • Dent the center of each burger patty, and divide the white Cheddar between 2 of the indentations and the pimento cheese between the other 2. Doing the best you can, fold the meat up and over the cheese, then lightly press to seal everything together.
  • Grill or sear the burger patties over medium-high heat, roughly 4 minutes per side. Let the burgers rest for about 5 minutes. Put the burgers in the buns.
  • Serve the kid (white Cheddar) burgers with apple wedges, chips or fries.
  • Serve the adult (pimento cheese) burgers topped with the tomato-parsley relish.

MOLTEN CHEESE-STUFFED BURGERS



Molten cheese-stuffed burgers image

Take burgers to the next level by stuffing them with cheddar and mozzarella for a gooey centre, and topping them with a dollop of herby burger sauce

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1½ tbsp olive oil
1 onion , very finely chopped
70g smoked pancetta , finely chopped
1 garlic clove , crushed
4 thyme sprigs, leaves picked
500g lean beef mince (no more than 10% fat)
50g fresh breadcrumbs
1 egg yolk
60g mature cheddar , grated
60g grated mozzarella
120g mayonnaise
2½ tsp English mustard
½ small bunch of parsley , finely chopped
½ small bunch of basil
50g baby gherkins , finely chopped
4 seeded burger buns , split
2-3 Little Gem lettuces , leaves separated
2 ripe tomatoes , sliced
crispy fried onions

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.

MOM'S LEGENDARY STUFFED HAMBURGERS



Mom's Legendary Stuffed Hamburgers image

These are enormous, stick-to-your-ribs kind of burgers with a surprise in the center. A real family favorite. I like to serve them on a bun topped with sauteed mushrooms and Swiss cheese. Use extra lean or lean ground beef instead of medium because the bacon adds to the fat content of the meat.

Tips:

  • Fresh ground beef is the key to a juicy and flavorful burger. If you can, grind your own beef at home or ask your butcher to grind it for you.
  • Don't overwork the beef mixture. Overworking the beef will make the burgers tough.
  • Season the beef mixture generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the beef.
  • Use a large skillet or griddle to cook the burgers. This will help to prevent the burgers from crowding and sticking together.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help to prevent the burgers from burning on the outside and remaining raw on the inside.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Cheese-stuffed burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that are perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a burger that is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give cheese-stuffed burgers a try.
