How to Make Cheeseburgers

There is nothing as good as making cheeseburgers on the grill. In this article, I will explain how to make cheeseburgers using the grill. Of course, these can be done in the frying pan as well. A couple of important tips for making perfect cheeseburgers would be. First, make sure the burgers are well seasoned on both sides with freshly ground salt and black pepper. Second, make sure not to overcook the burgers. The internal temperate of ground beef should be 160 degrees. Third, resist the urge to press down on the burger patties while cooking. This will make all of the juices run out. There is nothing worse than a dry overcooked burger. These burgers include your typical condiments such as lettuce and tomato but what is special about this is the sauce. The burger sauce that goes on these burgers really kicks things up a notch.
