Ingredients for Stuffed Burgers with Cheese Bombs
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
- Ground Beef: Use a blend of 80/20 for a juicy burger. You can substitute with turkey or plant-based alternatives if desired.
- Cheese (Cheddar or Mozzarella): The star of the show! Melts beautifully and adds creaminess to your burgers.
- Burger Buns: Choose your favorite buns like brioche, whole wheat, or traditional sesame seed for the ultimate experience.
- Seasonings: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder elevate the flavor of the burger patty.
- Optional Toppings: Lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and your favorite sauces for serving.
How to Make Stuffed Burgers with Cheese Bombs
- In a bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just combined to avoid overworking the meat.
- Divide the seasoned beef into 8 equal balls. Flatten each ball to create a disc.
- Place a piece of cheese in the center of 4 discs. Top with the remaining 4 discs and pinch the edges to seal the cheese inside.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Cook the stuffed burgers for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
- While the burgers are cooking, toast your burger buns on the grill for a minute until lightly browned.
- Assemble your burgers with your desired toppings, serve, and enjoy!
Tips for Making Stuffed Burgers with Cheese Bombs
- Don’t Overmix: Mixing the ground beef too much can result in tough burgers. Mix gently just until combined.
- Seal Properly: Ensure the edges of your burgers are well-sealed to prevent the cheese from leaking during cooking.
- Use a Thermometer: To ensure your burgers are cooked to the perfect doneness, use a meat thermometer (160°F for well done).
Make-Ahead Instructions
- You can prepare the burger patties ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- Assemble the cheese bombs separately and refrigerate until ready to use.
Storing Leftovers
Leftover stuffed burgers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat thoroughly before serving.
Freezing Stuffed Burgers with Cheese Bombs
- Wrap each cooked stuffed burger tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
- Place wrapped burgers in a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
Reheating Stuffed Burgers with Cheese Bombs
- Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes or until heated through.
- Alternatively, use the microwave, but be cautious as this may make the buns soggy.
