Ingredients
Ketchup 4 tbsp or 60g
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place bread on large sheet pan and place 1 piece of American cheese on piece of bread.
- Preheat pan over high heat. In a mixing bowl, add cold ground beef and season with salt and pepper. Divide into 1/4-pound burgers and form 1/2"-thick, square-shaped patties, similar to bread dimensions. (Avoid over-handling the burgers as it will make them tough.) Cook burgers in two batches. Flip burger after about 2 minutes, then cook 2 minutes more (or until burgers have reached desired doneness). Transfer to a plate and loosely cover with aluminum foil; rest 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place sheet pan with bread in the oven until cheese is just melted. Lightly blot burgers with a paper towel. Place burgers on toasted bread with cheese and top with second piece of bread.
- Return grilled cheese burgers to the cast iron pan to warm the bread. Serve immediately while warm with ketchup, if desired.
