Episode #4090 Game Day Wings & Burgers
Easy
Makes 4 large burgers, or 6 – 8 smaller ones
The best meat for burgers has about 20% fat, any more and they wouldn’t hold together any less and they would taste too lean. 20% may seem like a lot but its essential for flavour and moistness.
Cheddar Cheese Burgers
2 pounds ground beef
12 ounces cheddar cheese, grated
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper
4 large buns
Your favorite fixin’s
Preheat your grill to its highest heat.
Mix the beef, grated cheese and Worcestershire together. Season with salt and pepper. Form into 4 large patties, pressing each one in the centre to form a shallow depression. This will help keep them from bulging as they cook and the outside edges shrink. Lightly oil your grill and then lay on the burgers and cook for 5 minutes on one side. Flip and continue to grill until they are cooked through, but still juicy.
Grill buns until toasty then dress the burgers with your favorite fixin’s!
