    • The following recipe serves 5-6 people.

Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 2 pounds lean ground beef (80-85% lean)
  • 1 block (8 ounce) cheddar cheese (cut into strips about the size of string cheese)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste (if using celery salt, omit salt)
  • 7 1/2 to 9 ounces bread rolls (hot dog rolls, 5-6, I use the New England style hot dog rolls, so you can grill them)
  • Condiments (your favorite, mustard, ketchup, dill or sweet relish, chopped onion, and celery salt are some of my favorites)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Slice the cheese into sticks (about the size of a string cheese).

  • Step 2: Season the ground beef with salt and pepper (or your favorite seasoning mix, I like to use garlic and onion powder) and split it up into 5-6 palm-sized balls.

  • Step 3: Flatten each ball out into a rectangle, and place a cheese stick horizontally down the middle. Roll it up, making sure that the ground beef is evenly covering the cheese stick.

  • Step 4: Place the soon-to-be burger dogs on a hot grill. Grill for 6-10 minutes, turning the dogs when charred grill marks appear on a side. You’ll need to do 3-4 turns (or more) to make sure you have even cooking around each dog.

  • Step 5: Burgers should be done when some cheese starts oozing out along with meat juice.

  • Step 6: Serve on hot dog buns with your favorite burger or hot dog condiments.
