Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheese Filling

    Cut the cheese into small cubes, approximately 1/2 inch in size. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ground Beef

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

  3. 3

    Form the Burger Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions. Take one portion and flatten it in your palm. Place a cube of cheese in the center and fold the beef around the cheese to form a ball. Gently flatten the ball into a patty shape. Repeat with the remaining portions.

  4. 4

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat your grill or stovetop pan over medium-high heat.

  5. 5

    Cook the Burgers

    Place the cheese-stuffed patties on the grill or pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C).

  6. 6

    Prepare the Buns and Toppings

    While the burgers are cooking, slice the tomato and prepare the lettuce. Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster if desired.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Burgers

    Once the burgers are fully cooked, place each patty on a toasted bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, ketchup, and mustard as desired.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Serve the homemade cheese stuffed burgers hot and enjoy!
