The Juicy Lucy burger has the cheese melted inside! These are great on the grill, but they can also be cooked on the stovetop, preferably using a cast iron skillet. Recipe makes 6 Low Carb Juicy Lucy Sliders, but it can easily be doubled for a crowd.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds fresh ground beef
- 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- Salt and pepper
- 12 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 package LC Soft Baked Dinner Rolls, sliced and buttered
- Vegetable oil (for grill grates)
- Toppings of your choice, such as sugar free ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, bacon, pickles, tomato slices, onion, lettuce
Method:
- In a large bowl combine ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt and pepper and mix until the seasoning is evenly distributed.
- Roll the ground beef into 12 equally sized balls. Place on wax paper or plastic wrap and flatten into patties that are about ¼ inch thick.
- Sprinkle equal amounts (about 2 oz.) of the shredded cheese on each of 6 of the patties, avoiding the outermost edge.
- Top each burger with a second patty and press down on the edges to seal the two patties completely together.
- Rub vegetable oil on grill and heat grill to high.
- Sear burgers over direct heat, 1-2 minutes per side. After flipping burgers, poke a small hole in top of each one to allow steam to escape.
- Lower the heat on the grill and continue cooking until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes, or until cooked to your preference.
- Remove from grill and allow burgers to rest for at least 5 minutes.
- While the burgers are resting, toast the sliced and buttered LC Dinner Rolls on the grill.
- Place burgers on toasted rolls, add toppings, serve, and dig in!
