Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound ground beef chuck (20 percent fat)
4 teaspoons softened butter
4 hamburger buns, split
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 slices melting cheese, such as American or mild cheddar
Toppings, such as shredded iceberg lettuce, pickle chips, thinly sliced red onion, mustard, ketchup, and mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Heat broiler. Divide beef into 4 rounds and place each between two layers of plastic wrap. Using a rolling pin, roll beef into 1/4-inch-thick patties. Butter inside of each bun. Place on a baking sheet, buttered side up, and toast under broiler.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over high. Generously season patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Working in batches, cook burgers 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and top each with cheese; cover and cook 1 to 2 minutes more. Place burgers on buns and serve with desired toppings.

I've had better cheeseburgers before, but these were still pretty good. The patties were cooked well and the cheese was melted perfectly. I would order these again if I was in the mood for a cheeseburger.

These cheeseburgers were a bit disappointing. The patties were dry and the cheese was not melted all the way. I would not order these again.

I'm so glad I tried these cheeseburgers. They were everything I hoped for and more. The patties were juicy and flavorful, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making these again.

These cheeseburgers were a bit too greasy for my taste. The patties were also a little overcooked. I would not order these again.

I'm not a huge fan of cheeseburgers, but these were really good. The patties were well-seasoned and the cheese was melted perfectly. I would definitely order these again.

These cheeseburgers are the best! I love the way the cheese melts and the patties are so juicy. I always make a double batch so I can have leftovers for lunch the next day.
