Ingredients
Scale
For the Burger
- 2 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 12 slices American cheese
- 4 sesame seed buns
- 2 cups French fries (store-bought or homemade)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Toppings
- Ketchup
- Mustard
- Mayo
Instructions
- Prepare the Fries: Cook the French fries according to the package instructions or fry your homemade fries until crispy and golden. Set aside once done.
- Form and Season Patties: Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty. Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly on both sides of each patty for seasoning.
- Cook the Patties: Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook each patty for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they reach your preferred level of doneness.
- Melt the Cheese: During the last minute of cooking, place a slice or two of American cheese on each patty and cover the pan briefly to melt the cheese thoroughly.
- Toast the Buns: Lightly toast the sesame seed buns in a toaster or on a skillet to add a slight crunch and warmth.
- Assemble the Burger: Begin with the bottom bun, then stack three to four cheesy beef patties on top of each other to create a towering burger.
- Add Fries and Condiments: Place a generous handful of cooked French fries over the patties. Add optional condiments such as ketchup, mustard, and mayo to taste.
- Finish the Burger: Top with the toasted top bun to complete the Monster Stack Cheeseburger.
Notes
- For juicier patties, avoid pressing them down while cooking.
- Customize the burger with additional toppings like lettuce, tomato, or pickles if desired.
- If preferred, use different cheese varieties such as cheddar or Swiss for varied flavor.
- To ensure even cooking, allow patties to come to room temperature before cooking.
