• Ready In: 25 mins

Ingredients

• 1  lb  ground  New York strip steaks or 1  lb  ground sirloin
• 6  slices cheddar cheese, cut thick
• 1  egg
• 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt

• 6  gourmet  hamburger buns (or whatever you have)
• 1  tablespoon butter
• 1  tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1  teaspoon heavy cream
• 1⁄4 cup  breadcrumbs

Directions

1. Mix egg, salt and pepper, worestershire sauce, heavy cream, and bread crumbs together and add meat. Don't over mix, but incorporate everything together.
2. Try to divide it in the bowl into 4-6 equal parts.
3. On small pieces of wax paper, start forming the meat patties, while adding a little pad of butter in the middle and form the patty around it.
4. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, so the patties bind together.
5. Cook about 6 minutes per side, depending on the heat of your grill or grill pan. DO NOT PUSH DOWN ON THE PATTY. I know its tempting.
6. Melt cheddar slices on the last 45 seconds of cooking.
7. Let rest 2 minutes and serve hot on toasted buns with traditional accompaniments, including caramelized or grilled onions.
