Onion & Cheddar Burgers

Lean ground beef contains less fat but it can produce dry burgers. To help retain some of the moistness, add 1 tablespoon cold water to each pound of ground beef before cooking.

Ingredients

2 lb ground beef

1 egg

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1/4 tsp dried oregano

1/2 cup ketchup

1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 cup onion

3/4 cup Cheddar cheese

6 hamburger buns

Directions

1. Combine beef, egg, salt, pepper, oregano, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl; mix well. Add onion; mix well.

2. Add Cheddar to bowl; mix well but do not over mix. Cheese should retain its shape.

3. Shape beef mixture into 6 thick patties using a hamburger press. Preheat broiler.

4. Place hamburgers on broiler pan. Broil, turning once, until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Toast cut sides of buns under broiler. Place patties on buns.
