Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ½ pounds ground beef
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
¾ teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
4 slices American cheese (such as Kraft®)
4 hamburger buns, split

Steps:

  • Combine ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, and pepper in a large bowl; mix well. Form 8, thin patties from the beef. Each patty should be slightly larger than a slice of cheese.
  • Cut each slice of American cheese into 4 equal pieces; stack the pieces. Sandwich one stack of cheese between 2 ground beef patties. Tightly pinch edges together tightly seal the cheese within the meat. Repeat with the remaining cheese and patties.
  • Preheat a cast-iron or other heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat. Cook burgers until well browned, about 4 minutes. It is common for burgers to puff up due to steam from the melting cheese. Turn burgers and prick the top of each to allow steam to escape; cook until browned on the outside and no longer pink on the inside; about 4 minutes. Serve on hamburger buns.

JUICY GRILLED CHEESEBURGERS



Juicy Grilled Cheeseburgers image

These quarter-pounders are lightened up with 90-percent lean beef and a mere half-ounce of Cheddar, and they're served on wholesome whole wheat English muffins.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Canola oil or nonstick grilling cooking spray, for oiling the grates
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
4 whole wheat English muffins, split
1 medium ripe tomato, cored and cut into 4 thick slices
1 pound 90-percent lean ground beef
2 ounces 50-percent reduced-fat sharp Cheddar, grated (about 1/2 cup)
Pickles, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Heat a grill to medium-high direct heat and lightly oil the grates using a paper towel soaked in canola oil or nonstick grilling cooking spray.
  • Spread a 16-inch-long piece of nonstick aluminum foil on a cutting board (or mist a piece of regular aluminum foil with nonstick cooking spray). Top with the onions, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and 1 tablespoon water. Bring two sides of the foil together, fold over twice to create a seal and then seal the remaining two ends. Put on the grill and cook for 12 minutes, flipping once. The onions should be tender with only a bit of charring. Carefully open the top of the foil to let all the steam out and continue to cook the onions, tossing, until browned and lightly charred, 3 minutes longer. Remove from the heat.
  • While the onions cook, mix the ketchup and mustard together in a small bowl. Season with pepper and set aside.
  • Lightly toast the English muffins on the grill and place one top and bottom on each of 4 plates. Spread some of the ketchup sauce on the bottom half of each muffin and top with a slice of tomato.
  • Divide the beef into 4 patties about 4 inches in diameter and just under 1/2-inch thick. Sprinkle with a total of 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place the burgers on the grill. Cook until the edges of the burgers are browning, 3 to 5 minutes, and then flip. Brush the burgers with the remaining ketchup sauce and evenly top with the shredded cheese. Cover the burgers with the grill lid or a large heatproof bowl and continue to cook until the cheese has melted and the burgers are still a bit pink on the inside, about 3 minutes more.
  • Put one burger on top of the assembled muffin bottom and top with some of the grilled onions and the top of the muffin. Serve with pickles if desired.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 9 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 poblano peppers
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 white onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup Mexican crema
4 ounces Oaxaca cheese, cubed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon chipotle chile powder
One 11-ounce package pretzel slider buns
1 pound ground beef, divided into 9 patties (1.5 to 2 ounces each)
2 plum tomatoes, sliced
1 cup cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Roast the poblanos over an open flame or under the broiler, turning as necessary, until charred all over, about 8 minutes. Place in a medium bowl and cover with a plate to steam and loosen the skin, about 5 minutes. When cooled, peel off the blackened outer skin, remove the seeds and stems and discard. Slice the poblanos into thin strips. Set aside.
  • Set an oven rack as close as possible to the broiler. Heat the broiler to high.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until slightly softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the poblanos and cook until everything is very soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the crema and Oaxaca cheese and cook until the cheese is just melted. Reduce the heat to low, season with 1 teaspoon salt and keep warm.
  • Combine the melted butter, chipotle powder and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Split the slider buns, put on a baking sheet cut-side up and brush evenly with the butter mixture. Broil until golden around the edges, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter.
  • Place the beef patties on the baking sheet and season generously with salt and pepper. Broil to desired doneness, about 4 minutes for medium.
  • Put a patty on each bottom bun. Spoon some of the poblano sauce over each and top with a tomato slice and cilantro leaves. Close the sliders with the top buns.

Stuffed Cheeseburger Aka

Yummy cheeseburgers with a cheesy gooey velveeta suprise in the middle. You can season the meat and top the burgers however you like. Oh yeah and don't try with cheddar, it seems to evaporate or ooze out during the cooking process.

Provided by Mrs. Ambrosia

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 25m

Yield 6 Burgers, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs ground beef
6 ounces Velveeta cheese
salt
pepper
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons McCormick's Montreal Brand steak seasoning
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
4 -8 hamburger buns
bacon (optional)
avocado (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Mix ground beef with salt, pepper, worcestershire, bread crumbs and steak seasoning.
  • 2. Form a (thin-med) hamburger patty and place a slice of velveeta in the center, top with another patty. Seal the edges of the two paties together so they form one single burger with the velveeta sealed inside. Repeat until meat is used up.
  • 3. Grill burgers and serve to your liking. Try not to flip more than twice.
  • 4. Top with bacon and avocado or serve to your liking. Careful when you bite into them, the cheese is hot!

Tips:

  • Use Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: Start with the best ingredients you can find, including freshly ground beef, ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, and flavorful cheese.
  • Season the Beef Liberally: Don't be afraid to season the ground beef generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices. This will help develop flavor and depth in the burgers.
  • Handle the Beef Gently: When forming the burger patties, handle the beef gently to avoid overworking it. Overworking the beef can make the burgers tough.
  • Cook the Burgers to Your Desired Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness. For a medium-rare burger, cook to an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C).
  • Toast the Buns: Toasting the buns will help them hold up better to the juicy burgers and prevent them from getting soggy.
  • Load Up the Burgers: Don't be shy with the toppings! Load up your burgers with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and condiments.

Conclusion:

Creating juicy, cheesy burgers at home is a delicious and satisfying experience. With the right ingredients and techniques, you can make burgers that rival those from your favorite restaurant. Remember to use fresh, high-quality ingredients, season the beef liberally, handle it gently, cook it to your desired doneness, toast the buns, and load up the burgers with your favorite toppings. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect burgers every time.
