Our Juicy Lucy Hamburgers are the perfect recipe for tailgating at the game! A tasty hamburger bursting with melted cheese inside on a crispy toasted bun will have all your fellow tailgaters ready for the game. Enjoy them with your favorite pickles and chips.
DIRECTIONS
Combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Gently mix the beef mixture to thoroughly combine with the seasoning.
On a baking sheet, divide the mixture into 6 portions, then divide each of those portions in half, about 2 ½ ounces each.
Pat each portion into a 4-inch disk.
In the center of 6 patties, fan 6 cheese quarters in a circle, leaving a ½ -inch border.
Top the cheese with the remaining 6 meat portions.
Pinch the sides firmly to close, and pat into a 4-inch sealed disk.
Heat the same cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Place the patties in the skillet and let cook for 2 to 3 minutes until golden and crusty.
Flip and cook the other side until seared.
Remove to a cutting board or baking sheet to rest for at least 5 minutes.
To assemble: place pickles on the bottom bun, then the patty, then any condiments you want to use, and then the top bun.
