Juicy Lucy (Cheese Stuffed Burgers)

Steps

1. Combine ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
2. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions (about 3 oz each) and form into balls.
3. Flatten each ball between parchment paper or plastic wrap using the bottom of a heavy skillet to form 8 thin patties.
4. Arrange 4 quartered cheese slices in a fan shape on top of one patty, leaving space around the edges. Top with a second patty and pinch edges together to seal in the cheese.
5. Heat oil in a medium iron skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add patties and cook without moving for 3 minutes.
6. Flip the patties and cook for another 3 minutes on the other side.
7. Transfer burgers to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes. Toast the buns in the same skillet while burgers rest.
8. Serve the burgers on toasted buns with pickle slices and desired toppings.
