Form the Patties
Divide the mixture into two equal parts and shape them into patties, making them slightly larger than the burger buns as they will shrink while cooking.

Grill the Patties
Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of pepper jack cheese on top of each patty, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese has melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.
