GRILLED CHEESE-STUFFED BURGERS

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.

30-MINUTE SOUTHWESTERN CHEESY STUFFED BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat your grill to high. Mix beef, seasoning and salt together, in a medium bowl. Form mixture into ¼" patties. Set aside one cup of cheese for topping. Scoop 2 ounces of the remaining cheese in the center of one patty place a second patty on top. Press the two together and crimp the edges with your fingertips sealing it so the cheese does not leak out. Repeat until all burgers are prepared. Make a slight indentation in the center of the burgers to prevent it from doming up in the center. The indentation will rise as your burger cooks. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred (about 5 minutes), turning once (cook for 4 minutes on the other side for medium). Avoid pressing with a spatula, you don't want the juice or cheese to escape! Carefully add 1 tablespoon of cheese to the top of each burger for the last minute of cooking. Set burger aside and allow to rest for 5 minutes before cutting. Place buns on grill (inside down) for about 1 minute, until they are golden. Remove buns and 1 tablespoon remaining cheese on top of bottom bun, then add burger, ¼ cup salsa and top bun. Serve and enjoy!
