14 Mouthwatering Stuffed Burgers| MyRecipes

What's better than a juicy burger hot off the grill? One stuffed with melted, gooey cheese, obviously. These stuffed burgers are the ultimate in grilling season inspiration. While you can of course use any cheese you love, this burger construct is especially useful for crumbly cheeses, like feta and blue cheese, that are prone to falling off the patty as soon as you lift your stacked burger to go in for the first bite. Not only does stuffing your burger keep the most important topping contained, but the cheesy core keeps your patty exceptionally succulent as it cooks. Plus, all practicality aside, everyone knows—a stuffed burger is a fun burger. Need proof? Give our Ham and Swiss-Stuffed Burgers or our Pizza-Stuffed Cheeseburgers a go.

Cobb Salad Stuffed Burgers Recipe

We’ve mashed up two classics to create a warm, beefy Cobb salad you can eat with your hands. The cheese oozes out and the egg is rich, while the avocado is both cooling and tangy. The salty and super-savory concoction is a messy mouthful, but you’ll make friends with this for sure. You don’t have to use brioche buns here (any sturdy bun will do) but the richer the bun, the better.

Jalapeño Popper Stuffed Burgers Recipe

How do you make jalapeño poppers even better? By surrounding them with beef. These jalapeño popper stuffed burgers have tons of cheddar flavor and just the right amount of spice to take things to the edge. Smaller jalapeños work better here, especially since they have a good heat level. Make things fancy with an onion roll instead of regular hamburger buns.
