Friends in Minnesota introduced me to the Juicy Lucy burger, a local favorite. Instead of putting the cheese on top, it gets stuffed inside, keeping the meat around the cheese nice and juicy. We love the meltiness of American cheese, but it works with any cheese you'd like. —Brigette Kutschma, Lake Geneva, Wisconsin

I’ve been stuffing burgers for a long time with cheeses, jalapeños, bacon, etc. and now I have a name for them! I use 80-85% beef for flavor and american, blue, cheddar, jack, and many other cheeses that appeal at the time. All varieties are good and yes, they can be a little messy but that’s the fun of BBQ!

it is what it says: juicy, but can be greasy so use the best ground beef or ground chuck, or mix it with ground turkey if you don't want your hands to get greasy.  Also switch the cheese to a cheese spread (Merk's or similar)  it gets warm but doesn't melt as much. make it you'll love it!

Good burger! I stuff a lot of burgers and they never disappoint.

OMG!  So delicious!  I will be stuffing burgers more often now.
