The Juicy Lucy Burger, known for its gooey cheese-stuffed center, is a mouthwatering delight. This recipe from Belly Full ensures a juicy and flavorful burger that will satisfy your cravings. Perfect for grilling season!
Ingredients: 1 pound ground beef 80% lean. 4 slices American cheese. 1/4 cup diced onions. 1/4 cup diced pickles. Salt and pepper to taste. 4 hamburger buns.
Instructions: Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions and shape them into thin patties. Place a slice of American cheese on 4 of the patties. Top the cheese with a tablespoon of diced onions and a tablespoon of diced pickles. Place the remaining 4 patties on top of the cheese-topped patties, sealing the edges to create stuffed burgers. Season both sides of the stuffed burgers with salt and pepper. Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare to medium doneness. Adjust cooking time to your desired level of doneness. Toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until they are lightly browned. Assemble the burgers by placing the cooked stuffed patties on the bottom half of each bun. Add any additional toppings or condiments of your choice, such as lettuce, tomato, ketchup, or mustard. Top with the other half of the bun. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Juicy Lucy burgers!
