Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • Lettuce leaves (for serving)
  • Tomato slices (for serving)
  • Pickles (for serving)

Instructions

  1. 1In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until well combined.
  2. 2Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a thin patty.

  5. 5Cover each egg with another beef patty, sealing the edges tightly to prevent the egg from leaking out during cooking.
  6. 6Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness and the egg is set.
  7. 7During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on top of each burger to melt.
