- During the last minute of cooking, place the mozzarella cheese slices on top of the cheddar for extra cheesiness.
- While the patties finish cooking, lightly toast the sesame seed buns on the grill or skillet until golden brown.
- Assemble your burger by stacking two beef patties on each bun, adding dill pickle slices, and any additional toppings you desire.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your Cheesy Stacked Burger!
