Nothing is better than a good burger cooked on an open grill. Here are five recipes that can help you produce burgers that will delight your friends and family.
Grilled Inside-Out Southwestern Cheeseburgers- Serves 4
If she were real, I'd vote for Betty Crocker for President. This recipe appears on bettycrocker.com, with lots of other good recipes.
The ingredients you'll need to make these burgers:
1 and 1/2 pound of lean ground beef 2 tablespoons of (finely) chopped onions 2 tablespoons of drained Old El Paso chopped green chiles 8 slices of pepper Jack cheese, 2x1x1/4 inch (approximately 4 oz) 4 kaiser rolls 1/4 cup Old El Paso taco sauce or Old El Paso Thick 'n Chunky salsa
To prepare:
Light and heat your grill. Mix the beef, the onion and the chiles. Make 8 thin patties. Top each of 4 patties with 2 slices of cheese. Place the remaining 4 beef patties on top and pinch the edges to seal securely. Place patties on grill over medium heat. Cover the grill and cook for 14 to 16 minutes, turning once. Remove when the burgers are slightly firm when pressed in the middle. Add rolls, cut sides down, for last 4 minutes of grilling or until toasted to your taste. Serve the burgers on rolls, covered with taco sauce.

Texas Stuffed Grilled Burgers- Five Servings
I found this mouth watering recipe at allrecipes.com.
Get together:
5 pounds of (lean) ground beef 6 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 2 teaspoons hickory seasoning (suggestedl) salt & pepper to taste 2 cups of chopped onion 2 cups chopped fresh mushrooms 2 cups chopped cooked ham 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Preparation directions:
Preheat a grill for high heat. When the grill is hot, lightly oil the grate. In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, hickory seasoning, salt and pepper until well blended. Make 8 or 10 balls, and flatten into patties. On one half of the patties, distribute the onions, mushrooms, ham and cheese. Carefully cover the piles with the remaining patties, making sure to seal all of the edges of the patties together tightly and enclose the filling. Grill the patties for 8 to 10 minutes per side, or until meat is well done, and cheese in the center is melted.
