Ingredients
4 servings
- •1 pound ground beef
- •1 tablespoon tomato paste
- •1 teaspoon salt
- •1 teaspoon white sugar
- •1 teaspoon garlic powder
- •1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- •0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- •0.25 teaspoon dried oregano
- •4 slices mozzarella cheese
- •4 fresh hamburger buns
Instructions
- Combine beef, tomato paste, salt, sugar, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, pepper, and oregano in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate to let flavors marry, about 4 hours.
- Form beef mixture into 8 thin patties. Place 1 slice of mozzarella cheese on each of 4 patties; leave at least a 1/2-inch border, breaking up the cheese as needed. Place remaining patties on top and pinch edges to seal in the cheese.
- Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Fry burgers until browned and centers reach 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 6 to 7 minutes per side. Serve on buns.
