Juicy Lucy

JUICY LUCY! A delicious hamburger stuffed with molten, bubbly, waterfalling cheese, all piled on a buttery toasted bun with all the fixings. The BEST.

Ingredients

6 serv.
  • s. ground beef2 lb
  • burger seasoning2 tablespoon
  • slices American cheese6
  • brioche buns6
  • Toppings

    Lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles

  • Sauces

    Ketchup, mustard, mayo

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Mix the spices into the ground beef (I just mix by hand). Divide the beef into 6 even sections.

  2. 2

    Form each section into two thin patties (a smaller top patty, and a larger bottom patty). Place 1-2 folded pieces of cheese on the bottom patty, and place the smaller top patty over it, pinching up the edges to seal.

  3. 3

    Grill or pan fry for about 5 minutes on medium heat, or until cooked to your desired doneness and cheese is melted. We usually sacrifice one Juicy Lucy and cut into it to test the doneness of both the beef and cheese.

  4. 4

    Let the Juicy Lucys rest for a minute or two. This is essential, otherwise the cheese will be so hot that it will literally come exploding out all over the place. I’m very serious.

  5. 5

    Serve on buns with your favorite toppings!
