CHEESEBURGER IN PARADISE

Steps:

• Place meat in a large bowl.
• Pour oil and Worcestershire sauce over onions in a microwave proof bowl.
• Place in Microwave oven for 1-2 minutes to soften onions. Cool.
• Place all the rest of the burger ingredients in the bowl with the beef. Add the cooked onion mixture. Mix just to blend ingredients.
• Make 6 patties not handling too much and indent the center or make a hole through the center of the burger. The hole will close as cooks. This stops the burger from puffing to much in the center.
• Preheat grill on HIGH for 10 minute.
• Coat grill lightly with vegetable oil.
• Grill rolls, cut side down 30 seconds; remove and set aside.
• Sear meat on grill, about 2 min, until meat has changed color about one-quarter way up from bottom. Turn over. Sear 1 to 3 minute.
• Reduce heat to MEDIUM (for most burgers) or LOW (for burgers thicker than 1 inch); close lid.
• Cook burgers to 160 degrees internal temperature. Check by inserting digital thermometer halfway into thickest part of burger.
• Top with cheese; close lid. Grill until cheese starts to melt, 1 minute. Place each burger on rolls topped with cabbage and tomato. Go ahead and add some ketchup. ENJOY!
