Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 slices American or cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 hamburger buns
Ketchup, mayonnaise and/or dill pickle slices, for topping
Directions
- Mix the beef with 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl. Form the beef into eight 1/4-inch-thick patties. Fold each cheese slice into quarters and place a folded slice on 4 of the patties. Top each with another patty, then form the meat around the cheese to fully enclose.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare.
- Serve the burgers on the buns and top with ketchup, mayonnaise and/or pickles. Let sit a few minutes before eating.
