Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 pieces Hamburger buns
- 2 tablespoons Butter, softened
- as desired Pickles or other toppings (optional)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are softened and fragrant.
Stir in the ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture and stir until the cheese is fully melted and incorporated. Turn off the heat and set aside.
Preheat a griddle or another skillet over medium heat. Spread a thin layer of softened butter on the interior sides of the hamburger buns.
Toast the buns, butter-side down, on the griddle until golden brown, about 1–2 minutes.
Spoon the cheesy beef mixture generously onto the toasted buns. Add pickles or other toppings as desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Cheeseburger Joes!
