Classic double cheeseburger Recipe

American · Main course · 25 min total

A juicy double cheeseburger with two beef patties, melted American cheese, and classic toppings, perfect for a satisfying homemade meal.

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20)
• 8 slices American cheese
• 4 hamburger buns
• 4 leaves lettuce
• 4 slices tomato
• 1/2 red onion, sliced into rings
• 4 tablespoons ketchup
• 4 tablespoons yellow mustard
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 tablespoons butter (for toasting buns)

Instructions

1. Divide ground beef into 8 equal portions and shape into thin patties, slightly larger than the buns. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
2. Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked through.
3. In the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of cheese and cover to melt.
4. While patties cook, butter the cut sides of the buns and toast on the griddle until golden.
5. Assemble burgers: place a cheese-topped patty on each bun bottom, then add another cheese-topped patty on top.
6. Add lettuce, tomato, onion rings, ketchup, and mustard. Close with bun tops and serve immediately.

Tips

• For extra flavor, add pickles or bacon.
• Serve with french fries or a side salad.
• Use a meat thermometer to ensure patties reach 160°F (71°C).
