“juicy Lucy” Burger* Recipe

Instructions for Juicy Lucy Burger

1. 1

   Prepare the Patties

   In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.

2. 2

   Form the Patties

   Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions. Flatten 2 of the portions into thin patties. Place 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese in the center of each patty. Flatten the remaining 2 portions and place them on top of the cheese-filled patties. Seal the edges tightly to form stuffed burgers.

   Cook the Burgers

   Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness and the cheese is melted inside.

   Assemble the Burger

   Toast the burger buns on the grill or skillet for a minute. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the juicy Lucy patty. Top with sliced tomatoes, pickles, ketchup, and mustard as desired. Cap with the top half of the bun.
