Ingredients:
2 pounds lean ground beef |
1/4 cup barbecue sauce |
1 teaspoons steak seasoning (recommended: montreal) |
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (recommended: lawry's) |
1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar, divided |
4 sesame seed hamburger buns, lightly toasted |
lettuce leaves |
sliced tomatoes |
grilled onions, recipe follows |
2 yellow onions |
1 teaspoon vegetable oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. For burgers:
2. Mix first 4 ingredients in large bowl until blended. Shape into 4 balls. Poke deep hole in each ball and fill each with 1 1/2 tablespoons of cheese. Mold meat around cheese to enclose. Flatten each filled burger to 3/4-inch-thick patty. (Can be made 8 hours ahead, covered and chilled.)
3. Grill burgers to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium.
4. Place burgers on bottom halves of buns. Top with lettuce, tomatoes, onions and upper halves of buns.
5. Grilled Onions:
6. Peel onions, leaving root end intact. Slice into 3/4-inch thick rounds. Lay onion flat and insert a toothpick horizontally through at least 1/2 of the onion. This will prevent onion from falling apart on the grill. Brush with oil and season with salt. Place on a preheated grill at medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes on each side or until caramelized and softened. Remove toothpicks before serving.
