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 package instructions if store-bought, or fry homemade fries until crispy and golden. Set aside and keep warm.
- Form and Cook the Patties: Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion gently into burger patties, making sure not to compact the meat too much for juicy results.
- Season the Patties: Season both sides of each patty with salt and pepper to enhance flavor.
- Cook the Patties: Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your preferred level of doneness.
- Add Cheese: During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of American cheese on each patty to melt.
- Prepare the Buns: Toast the sesame seed buns lightly on the skillet or grill until golden and slightly crisp.
- Assemble the Burger: Start with the bottom bun and stack 3 to 4 cheesy patties on top. Add a generous layer of cooked French fries over the patties. Spread optional condiments like ketchup, mustard, or mayo as desired.
- Top the Burger: Place the top bun over the fries and press gently to hold the stacked layers together.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Monster Stack Cheeseburger immediately while hot and enjoy the combination of juicy beef, melted cheese, and crispy fries in every bite.
Notes
- Use 80/20 ground beef blend for optimal juiciness and flavor.
- Cooking times may vary depending on grill or skillet heat; adjust accordingly to ensure patties are cooked through.
- Feel free to customize optional toppings based on personal preference.
- For homemade fries, slice potatoes evenly for even cooking.
- To keep patties juicy, avoid pressing down on them while cooking.
