Ingredients
  

For the Patties
  • 1 lb Ground Beef (85% lean) can substitute with ground turkey or plant-based meat
  • 2 tbsp Chopped Fresh Flat-Leaf Parsley any fresh herb can substitute
  • 2 cloves Finely Chopped Garlic garlic powder works in a pinch
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce soy sauce is a gluten-free alternative
  • 1 tbsp Montreal-Style Steak Seasoning any steak seasoning will do
For the Sandwiches
  • 4 tbsp Butter (softened) olive oil can be a healthier swap
  • 8 slices White Bread can use whole grain or gluten-free bread
  • 8 oz Colby-Jack Cheese other melting cheeses work as well

Equipment

  • nonstick griddle or skillet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped parsley, finely chopped garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and Montreal-style steak seasoning. Mix well until just combined. Shape into 3 equal patties, about ¾-inch thick.
  2. Heat a nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for 4-6 minutes on each side, checking for an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Warm the griddle again. Place buttered slices of bread on the griddle, butter-side down. Layer with a slice of cheese, a cooked patty, another slice of cheese, and top with the remaining slices of bread, butter-side up.
  4. Grill the sandwiches for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, then flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-5 minutes until the cheese is melted.
  5. Remove from heat, let rest for a minute, slice in half, and serve warm with your favorite sides.
