Ingredients

  1. 2 1/2 tablespoons Hungarian paprika
  2. 2 teaspoons salt
  3. 1 teaspoons medium heat chili powder
  4. 1/4 teaspoons cayenne pepper
  5. 2 cups ketchup
  6. 1 cup shredded white Cheddar
  7. 1 cup diced red onion
  8. 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
  9. 3/4 teaspoons black pepper
  10. 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  11. 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
  12. 1/2 teaspoon Mexican oregano
  13. 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  14. 1 egg, lightly beaten
  15. 4 buns

Instructions

  1. Adobo Ketchup:
  2. Mix all ingredients together and set aside.
  3. Burgers:
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-high.
  5. In a bowl, combine the Cheddar and onions. Set aside until ready to use.
  6. Mix together the ground beef, pepper, salt, garlic, oregano, cumin and egg until thoroughly combined, but not overworked. Form into 4 equal-sized balls. Flatten out each ball to 1/4-inch thick and put a tablespoon each of the onion and Cheddar in the middle. Fold the burger meat over the onion and Cheddar, enclosing it securely in the middle of the meat and form it back into a ball. Flatten into 3/4-inch thick burger patties. Grill for 5 to 6 minutes turning only once.
  7. Toast the buns on the grill over indirect heat. Add the burgers to the buns and serve with the ketchup.

I fed very picky eaters with these burgers and they were a big hit! I followed the recipe to the letter and they were thoroughly enjoyed. Next time I’ll try ground turkey just to make them a bit healthier, but they were so tasty!

These were a big hit at a small bbq tonight. They were so juicy and flavorful. I will definitely make these again!

I liked the ketchup but I’m not sure anyone else did. My husband said it was “gross”. No one else mentioned anything but I noticed that no one ate it.

It is impossible to invent something that is already a classic favorite! As a proud Minnesota girl, I have been enjoying Juicy Lucy’s (burgers with cheese and other toppings stuffied inside the burger) forever. The Lucy was created here in Minneapolis, and I would expect a fellow Midwesterner (Janet claims Chicago as her hometown) to have more respect for the burger and molten cheese perfection that is the Juicy Lucy.
