Ingredients
Scale
Main Burger Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Additional Ingredients:
- 4 slices American cheese
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 8 slices white or sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons butter (softened)
- Optional toppings: sliced tomatoes, pickles, caramelized onions, ketchup, mustard
Instructions
- Prepare Burger Patties: Season the ground beef with salt and pepper, then form into 4 thin, equal-sized patties.
- Cook Patties: Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for 3–4 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Butter one side of each bread slice. Place a slice of bread butter-side down in a skillet, add a slice of American cheese, a cooked burger patty, a slice of cheddar cheese, and another slice of bread, butter-side up.
- Grill Sandwiches: Grill over medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted. Repeat for remaining sandwiches.
- Serve: Serve hot with optional toppings on the side or inside the sandwich.
Notes
- For extra flavor, spread garlic butter on the bread before grilling.
- You can swap the cheese types or add a second patty for a double grilled cheese burger.
