Rich, gooey cheese melds with juicy burger patties for an unforgettable twist on a classic favorite, ideal for casual gatherings or cozy nights in.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 slices of bread
- 8 slices of cheese cheddar, American, or your choice
- 4 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Preheat the skillet over medium heat.
- Season the ground beef with garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then form it into four equally sized patties.
- Cook the burger patties on the skillet for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
- While the burgers are cooking, assemble the grilled cheese sandwiches by placing cheese slices between two pieces of bread.
- Once burgers are done, transfer them to a plate to rest briefly. In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and add the assembled sandwiches.
- Grill the sandwiches for about 3-4 minutes per side, pressing down gently until golden and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
- Remove the sandwiches, slice them in half, and immediately place a burger patty in between each pair of grilled cheese slices.
- Serve your grilled cheese burgers immediately, accompanied by your favorite condiments or sides.
