Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium, indirect heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Mix ground beef, yogurt, thyme, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Form mixture into eight equal patties, about 2 to 3 inches in diameter.

Step 3

Sandwich two patties around one slice cheese and seal the edges. Repeat with remaining patties and cheese.

Step 4

Arrange stuffed patties on the preheated grill over indirect heat. Cover and cook until no longer pink in the center and cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
