Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Ground beef (80% lean)
• 0.5 cups Breadcrumbs
• 0.25 cups Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 cups Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1 clove Garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp Ketchup
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 6 slices Cheddar cheese slices
• 6 whole Burger buns
• 2 tbsp Butter (optional, for toasting buns)
• 0 Additional ketchup (optional, for topping)
• 0 Lettuce, tomato, and pickles (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until all ingredients are evenly combined. Be careful not to overmix to avoid dense burgers.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Make a small indentation with your thumb in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly and prevent puffing up.

Step 3

Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Cook the burger patties for 4–5 minutes on one side, then flip them and cook for another 4–5 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

Step 5

While the burgers are cooking, toast the burger buns if desired. Spread butter on the inside of each bun and toast them in a skillet or under a broiler until lightly golden.

Step 6

Assemble the burgers by placing the cooked patties on the bottom buns. Add additional ketchup or other toppings like lettuce, tomato, and pickles, if desired. Place the top buns on the burgers to complete.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy your Acadia's Meatloaf Style Cheeseburgers!
