Cheeseburgers - oldmarrieds style

Yeah, so I posted a picture below and never got around to posting an actual recipe. So here goes (a little late for the big grilling weekend)



Cheeseburgers
1lb ground beef (we like ground sirloin or lean 90/10 or 93/7)
1/2 packet Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix (dry)
1 egg beaten
2 Tbs Montreal Steak Seasoning
1 Tbs Worcestershire sauce
salt & pepper
4 buns

Toppings
2 tomatoes, thickly sliced
1 Vidalia (or sweet yellow) onion, thickly sliced
4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
Bunch of green leaf lettuce, washed & torn

Preheat grill to 400-450 degrees (pretty darn hot)

In a bowl, beat 1 egg and mix in the dry Ranch dressing and steak seasoning.

Add ground beef and mix well (hands work best!) Divide into 4 even sections and roll/flatten into hamburger patties.

Cook hamburger patties on the grill with a dash of Worcestershire sauce on each side (turning once) to desired doneness. Top with cheese last 45 seconds of cooking (will melt quickly depending on thickness of the slice)

While cooking burgers, place thick slices of tomatoes & vidalia onions on a grill sheet*. Season lightly with salt & pepper. Cook for 3 minutes per side, turning once.

Lightly toast buns on grill after removing burgers to rest.

Top with grilled onions, tomatoes and lettuce as desired and enjoy!
