Cut cheese slices into quarters. Make 6 stacks of 4 cheese quarters; place 1 stack into center of 6 patties. Top each with 1 patty; press and pinch edges to seal tightly. Flatten slightly. Refrigerate 30 minutes or until firm.
-
STEP 3
Heat gas grill on medium or charcoal grill until coals are ash white.
-
STEP 4
Place patties onto grill. Grill turning occasionally, 9-12 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160°F. or desired doneness.

STEP 5
Combine all topping ingredients in bowl; mash with fork until well mixed. Set aside.

Remove burgers from grill. Place 1 lettuce leaf onto bottom half of bun. Top with 1 slice tomato, burger, about 1 tablespoon avocado mixture and top half of bun.
Tip #1
- Look for prepared roasted garlic in jars in the produce aisle of the supermarket.
Tip #2
- Fat is what makes a juicy burger. Choose ground chuck or ground beef that is 80-85% lean.
Tip #3
- Use an instant read thermometer to tell what the temperature is inside the burger. A browned outside is not an indicator of doneness inside burger.
Tip #4
- Don’t press down burgers when cooking or the juices will run out and your burgers will be dry.
