    When grill is heated, carefully oil grill rack. Place patties on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cover grill; cook 13 to 15 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in center of patties reads 160°F., turning once. During last 1 to 2 minutes of cooking time, place cheese on patties; cook until melted. Serve patties in buns.

  • To broil patties, place on broiler pan; broil 3 to 4 inches from heat for 10 to 12 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in center of patties reads 160°F., turning once. During last 30 to 60 seconds of broiling time, place cheese on patties; broil until melted.
  • Use slices of any mild cheese that you might have on hand. Cheddar, mozzarella, colby or Monterey Jack would all be delicious on these burgers.
  • When burger patties are of uniform thickness, they will grill in the same amount of time. For uniform patties, use a patty-maker. Look for this inexpensive gadget at cookware stores.
