-
: 5 minutes
-
: 15 minutes
-
: 2 Burgers
-
1 pound ground beef
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
4 slices of your favorite cheese (cheddar, American, provolone – anything goes!)
-
4 slices of bread (I like Texas toast or sourdough)
-
2 tablespoons butter, softened
-
Your favorite burger toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, etc.)
-
Your favorite burger sauces (ketchup, mustard, mayo, burger sauce, etc.)
-
: In a bowl, gently mix the ground beef with salt and pepper. Form into 2 patties.
-
: Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through to your liking. Add cheese slices during the last minute of cooking and cover with a lid, so cheese will melt quickly.
-
: While the burgers are cooking, spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
-
: Place two slices of bread, butter-side down, in a clean skillet over medium heat. Put cheesy burger patty on one slice of bread, add your favourite burger toppings and sauces then cover with the remaining slice of bread, butter-side up. Grill until golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey, about 2-3 minutes per side.
-
: Slice in half and serve while hot and melty!
-
: A classic pairing!
-
: For extra indulgence.
-
: Adds a refreshing crunch.
-
: A lighter option to balance the richness.
-
: A nice, slightly sweet alternative to regular fries.
-
Experiment with different cheese blends. Pepper jack for a kick, or Swiss for a nutty flavor.
-
: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the ground beef mixture for a little heat.
-
: Caramelized onions, sautéed mushrooms, bacon – the possibilities are endless!
-
: Use a pretzel bun or brioche bun instead of regular bread.
-
: Mix ketchup and mayonnaise for a simple burger sauce, or try using BBQ sauce or a spicy aioli.
