An American classic, this burger will have grill-masters and guests ready for the next cookout. The beef patty can easily be dressed up or down with classic or trendy toppings. Juicy cheeseburgers are always a summer favorite but if we're being honest, this recipe stays in our rotation all year long. 

Ingredients

Tip: For sliders form the patty with ⅓ of a normal size burger and purchase slider-size buns!

• 2 ½ lbs Ground Beef
• 1 cup Bread Crumbs
• 2 tbsp Oregano, chopped
• 2 cups Duxelle, see below
• 8 slices Provolone Cheese

• ½ cup breadcrumbs
• Salt and Pepper

Preparation

1. Gently mix the beef, breadcrumbs, duxelle, oregano and season with salt and pepper. Form into 8 even patties.
2. Lightly butter a flat top of griddle. Brown the patties on both sides and finish in a 350 degree oven for 12‐15 minutes. Top each patty with a slice of cheese and melt.
3. Slice each roll open and butter both sides and grill bread. Place burger on the grilled bread and top with lettuce and tomato.
