Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 6 slices white bread
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 6 slices Colby-Jack cheese
• 1 pound 85% lean ground beef
• 1 teaspoon Montreal-style steak seasoning

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine ground beef, parsley, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and steak seasoning in a bowl; mix until thoroughly combined. Form into three equal patties.

Step 2

Heat a nonstick griddle over medium heat. Place burgers onto the warm griddle and cook to desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Remove burgers and set aside.

Step 3

Warm a second griddle over medium heat. Butter one side of each bread slice. Place 1/2 of the bread onto the griddle, buttered-side down. Add a slice of cheese, a burger, and a second slice of cheese to each one, then top with the remaining bread, buttered-side up.

Step 4

Cook until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted, 6 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
