Cheddar Stuffed Burgers South Beach Diet Friendly Recipes

Steps:

• Divide beef into 4 equal portions, and gently form each into a ball. Insert a piece of cheese in the center of each ball, and flatten into 1-inch-thick patties, pinching beef to enclose cheese. Transfer to a plate; with thumb, make a shallow indentation in center of patties, taking care not to expose cheese.
• Heat grill to high; lightly oil grates. Just before grilling, season patties with salt and pepper. Place on grill; cover, and cook to desired doneness, 2 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let burgers rest 3 to 4 minutes; serve on buns with desired toppings.

Steps:

• Fry bacon until crisp; crumble.
• Combine beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion and shape into 12 large, thin patties.
• Top six patties with 1 tablespoon bacon and 1 tablespoon cheese (this is approximate-use what looks right).
• Place remaining 6 patties on top of cheese/bacon topped patties and press edges to seal.
• Grill or broil for 3-4 minutes per side until done. We like ours well done.
• The last 2 minutes of cooking top patties with remaining bacon and cheese.
• Serve on buns.

Steps:

• Add ground beef, salt, and pepper to a large bowl. Combine until the meat is evenly seasoned.
• Roll into 16 meatballs and set aside.
• Cut each cheddar cheese block into 8 cubes (totaling 16 cubes).
• Press the cheddar cheese cube into the meatball and wrap the meat around it, completely covering the cheese.
• Preheat a skillet on medium heat for 10 minutes. After preheated, carefully coat with a light layer of oil with a high smoke point (we used canola oil).
• Add sliders to the pan, frying on the first side until the bottom is browned and crisp and the sides begin to brown (about 2-4 minutes, depending on the desired doneness). Flip and finish cooking on the other side.
• Serve immediately on Hawaiian sweet rolls with your favorite burger garnishes. (We added Roma tomatoes, red onion, lettuce, and Sriracha mayo.)
• Enjoy!
