A delightful twist on the classic burger, featuring a cheesy surprise inside.
Combine the ground beef, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and barbecue sauce in a mixing bowl until well mixed.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the burgers tough.
Divide the beef mixture into equal portions and flatten each portion into a thin patty.
Use a piece of parchment paper to prevent sticking while shaping the patties.
Place a piece of cheddar cheese in the center of half the patties, then top with the remaining patties, sealing the edges well.
Ensure the edges are sealed tightly to keep the cheese from leaking out during cooking.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
Avoid pressing down on the patties while grilling to retain their juices.
Serve the burgers hot, optionally with your favorite toppings and sides.
Consider serving with a side of coleslaw or a fresh salad for a balanced meal.
