Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend for optimal juiciness)
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 4 sesame seed burger buns
• 1 cup fresh lettuce, shredded
• 1/2 cup BBQ sauce, plus extra for drizzling
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Cooking oil, for grilling

How to Make Double Cheeseburger with BBQ Sauce

1. Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates or pan to prevent sticking.
2. While the grill is heating up, divide the ground beef into four equal portions and shape them into patties. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
3. Once the grill is hot, place the patties on it. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip them over.
4. After flipping, add a slice of cheddar cheese to each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the internal temperature of the patties reaches 160°F.
5. While the patties are finishing, lightly toast the sesame seed buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
6. Assemble the burgers: Place a lettuce layer on the bottom half of each toasted bun, followed by a beef patty with melted cheese. Drizzle BBQ sauce over the cheese, then top with the other half of the bun.
7. Serve immediately, with extra BBQ sauce on the side for dipping if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

• For a smoky flavor, consider adding a few drops of liquid smoke to your BBQ sauce.
• Don’t press down on the patties while cooking; this will release juices and make the burgers dry.
• Use a meat thermometer to ensure the patties are cooked safely to 160°F.
• Experiment with different types of cheese, like pepper jack or gouda, for a unique twist.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the beef for ground turkey or chicken for a lighter option.
• Add crispy bacon or sautéed onions for extra flavor.
• Top with pickles, tomatoes, or avocado for added freshness.
• Use a different sauce, like ranch or spicy mayo, for a different flavor profile.

What to Serve With It

• Crispy French fries or sweet potato fries
• Coleslaw for a refreshing crunch
• Grilled corn on the cob
• A simple garden salad
• Potato chips for an easy side
