Sous vide cheddar burger


Sous vide is a great way to cook burgers, especially huge ones.  It is also perfect for cooking a burger stuffed with something else.  Today we sous vide an 8-ounce burger filled with aged cheddar.

We learned this time around to check the melting point of the cheese.  In this example, the cheese softened but did not melt. Next time we’ll use different cheese to see what happens!

Ingredients:

  • (2) 1/4 pound beef patties (85/15 angus recommended)
  • 3 year aged cheddar
  • 1 slice American cheese
  • Hamburger bun

Instructions:

  1. Heat sous vide bath to 134 F
  2. Slice cheddar
  3. Lightly press cheddar into one beef patty
  4. Put second patty on top and press down gently
  5. Press a little more firmly around the perimeter to ensure contact between the two patties
  6. Optional – Get a strip of plastic wrap about 2 inches wide
    Tip: We like to get a 4 inch section and fold it in half
  7. Optional – Wrap around edges of burger
    Tip: This aged cheddar doesn’t melt at 134 for 1 hour, so the wrap is not necessary. For other cheeses it may be useful to prevent leakage.
  8. Season with salt and pepper
  9. Seal in vacuum bag on moist setting
  10. Cook for 1 hour in sous vide bath
  11. Heat grill or pan to medium high heat
  12. Remove from sous vide
  13. Remove plastic wrap
  14. Sear  1st side 15 seconds
  15. Flip
  16. Add American cheese
  17. Sear for 15 seconds or until cheese melted to your taste
  18. Put it on a bun
  19. Enjoy!

Griddler Cheeseburger


 

When it is 8⁰ F outside even we don’t want to use our grill.

The Griddler makes a good cheeseburger, but can be a pain to clean.

@easier4.me shows you how to clean it best.

.

Cleaning the Griddler:

  1. Mop up grease with paper towel
  2. Use moist paper towel to get off food while the Griddler is hot
  3. Wait for it to cool
  4. Use the included scraper to get more residue off. You need to dig in on both sides of each channel. Use it at an almost flat angle to clean the surface of the ridges
  5. Use the nylon scraper as a detail tool to get any difficult spots
  6. Grip it from behind and hold over the sink
  7. Use a brush with hot water and dish soap to finish the job and keep the bottom side dry

Reheating a 4 to 8 ounce Cheeseburger

Reheated Cheeseburger, BBQ Chips

Ever thought burgers were tough to reheat? This is our favorite way to reheat a cheeseburger.

  1. If the burger is in a bun, remove it.  It’s best to toss the bun and use a new one if you have more. If you don’t have a spare you can toast or microwave the current one for 15 seconds separately from the cheeseburger.
  2. Splash a little water in a microwave-safe bowl or container, enough to form a puddle but not enough to cover the entire bottom.
  3. Put the cheeseburger in the bowl and cover loosely.
  4. Microwave for 45 seconds covered.
    Steps 5 and 6 are recommended, but optional.
  5. Put another piece of cheese on top.
  6. Microwave another 15 seconds.

This will turn your cheeseburger into a delicious steamed tasting version of a cheeseburger. It can also be used if you grill burgers ahead of time and then
want to cook them fast.
