Modifed Cheeseburger

This is a different take on the Jucy Lucy we saw on Man vs. Food.  We figured it you stuff a hamburger with cheese why not other ingredients as well.  What came out of this was one fantastic hamburger

Ingredients:
1/3 pound 80/20 ground chuck per burger
Cheddar or American cheese
Slices Portabella Mushrooms
Chopped Onion
Salt and pepper to taste


Saute the onions and mushrooms until they are soft.

Make 1/2 pound into balls. Split the balls into half and press each half until it is about 1/4” thick.

 

Break the cheese into quarters and place on a patty. Add the onions and mushrooms.  Leave space around the edges to press the patties together.

Place the second patty on top of the first and press the edges together. Make sure there are not any gaps for the cheese to escape.  The toothpicks are so we can tell the difference between the types of burgers.

Grill at 400° until desired doneness. For medium rare I cook the burgers 5 to 6 minutes a side. Turn once while cooking.
