Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Ground beef (80/20 blend)
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese (sliced)
• 4 slices Swiss cheese (sliced)
• 4 slices Mozzarella cheese (sliced)
• 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 4 pieces Burger buns
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 1 medium Tomato (sliced)
• 1 medium Onion (sliced)
• 0.25 cups Mayonnaise
• 0.25 cups Ketchup
• 2 tbsp Yellow mustard

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overwork the meat.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Use your thumb to make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing up while cooking.

Step 3

Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the grates or pan with oil.

Step 4

Place the burger patties onto the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side, or until nicely seared.

Step 5

Flip the patties and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 6

During the last 2 minutes of cooking, place one slice each of cheddar, Swiss, and mozzarella cheese on each burger patty. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly on top of the other cheeses. Cover the grill or pan to allow the cheese to melt.

Step 7

While the burgers cook, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a separate pan with a bit of butter until golden brown.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard to make a simple burger sauce. Set aside.

Step 9

To assemble the burgers, spread a layer of burger sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, and a few onion slices.

Step 10

Place the cheesy burger patty on top of the vegetables, then cover with the top half of the bun.

Step 11

Serve the Four Cheese Burgers immediately with your favorite side dishes like fries or a fresh salad.
