Double Cheeseburger Recipe

American · Main course · 25 min total

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

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 8 slices American cheese
• 4 hamburger buns
• 4 leaves lettuce
• 4 slices tomato
• 1/2 onion, sliced into rings
• 8 dill pickle slices
• ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise to taste

Instructions

1. Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions (about 3 oz each) 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. In the last minute, top each patty with a slice of cheese and cover to melt.
3. Toast the buns on the griddle or in a toaster until lightly golden.
4. Assemble each burger: spread condiments on the bun bottom, then add lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, two cheese-topped patties stacked, and the bun top.
5. Serve immediately with fries or a side of your choice.

Tips

• Use a cast-iron skillet for the best crust on the patties.
• Don't press down on the patties while cooking to keep them juicy.
• Store leftover patties and buns separately; reheat patties in a skillet.
