Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Divide the Burger Patties mixture into 4 equal portions.
Flatten each portion into a thin patty, about inch thick.
Place 2 slices of Cheese Filling on one half of each patty.
Fold the other half of the patty over the cheese, pinching the edges tightly to seal. Ensure there are no gaps.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
Cook the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and the cheese is melted.
Toast the Hamburger buns lightly.
Spread Mayonnaise on the buns. Add Lettuce and Tomato.
Place the Juicy Lucy on the bottom bun and top with the other half.
