Instructions
- Prepare your grill for direct cooking over medium high heat (400° F).
- Place ground chuck in a bowl, dividing the meat into 8 equal portions (approximately ¼ lb each).
- Form equal-sized patties using the BBQ-AID Burger Press.
- Clean the grill grates using the BBQ-AID Grill Brush, then add the burger patties to the grill.
- I like to wait until the burgers are on the grill before adding salt and pepper. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the top of each burger and repeat on the other side when you flip the burgers. Wait at least a few minutes before using the BBQ-AID Spatula to flip the burgers in order to prevent the meat from sticking to the grill.
- Grill the burgers over medium high heat with the lid closed. Cook the burgers for 8 to 10 minutes or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
- Place cheese slices on burgers and allow them to melt during the final minute of cooking. You can also toast the hamburger buns on the grill for 30 seconds to a minute.
- Add grilled cheeseburgers to the buns along with your favorite toppings and condiments.
