Along with corn on the cob, serve some deli macaroni salad gussied up with chopped carrots and green bell peppers. Also have lettuce, sliced tomatoes and other condiments to pile onto the burgers. Strawberry shortcake is just right for dessert.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 2; can be doubled

Ingredients

10 ounces ground sirloin or lean ground beef
1/3 cup finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
2 large (4 1/2-inch-diameter) English muffins, split horizontally

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Combine meat, onion, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper in medium bowl; blend well. Divide meat mixture into 2 equal portions. Shape each into ball. Poke deep hole in each ball and fill each with half of cheese. Mold meat around cheese to enclose. Flatten each filled burger to 3/4-inch-thick patty.

    Step 2

    Grill burgers to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium. Grill muffin halves until beginning to color, about 1 minute per side. Serve burgers in muffins.
