Full Recipe:

Ingredients

• 1 lb 85% lean ground beef

• 3 tbsp chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

• 1 tbsp finely chopped garlic

• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

• 1 tsp Montreal style steak seasoning

• 2 tbsp butter, softened

• 6 slices white bread

• 6 slices Colby Jack cheese

Directions

1. Prepare the Patties:

   • In a bowl, combine ground beef, parsley, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and steak seasoning.

   • Mix thoroughly and shape into 3 equal patties.

2. Cook the Patties:

   • Heat a nonstick griddle over medium heat.

   • Cook the patties for 4 to 6 minutes per side, or until they reach the desired doneness.

   • An instant-read thermometer should register at least 160°F (71°C).

   • Remove the burgers from the griddle and set aside.

3. Assemble the Sandwiches:

   • Warm a second griddle over medium heat.

   • Butter one side of each slice of bread.

   • Place half of the bread slices onto the griddle, buttered-side down.

   • Layer each with a slice of cheese, a burger patty, and another slice of cheese.

   • Top with the remaining bread slices, buttered-side up.

4. Grill the Sandwiches:

   • Grill the sandwiches until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 6 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
