Directions
Lightly mix 6 ounces ground beef chuck with a big pinch of kosher salt. Form into two equal balls, and then shape into two flat patties. Lay two slices American cheese between them and form the meat around the cheese; make an indentation in the center of the patty. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat; sprinkle the skillet with salt. Cook the burger 4 to 5 minutes per side. Serve on a soft bun.

Insanely good! I put bacon crumbles and caramelized onions in the center with the cheeses of all kinds and...BOOM goes the flavor! Make sure the bacon and onions have cooled before you put them in the center. Also I have found that it helps to use wax paper to flatten the patties very thin, otherwise burgers end up freaking huge. It also helped me to make one patty bigger than the other one, that way I was able to roll the edges over better. Makes a better seal so that you can grill these rather than fry in a skillet or pan.

Some of the best burgers i have ever eaten. I topped with sautéed onions and jalapeños too and it added a great kick.
