You can use either a skillet or a griddle to whip up these tasty burgers in just 20 minutes.

• 56oz (3 1/2 lbs) ground beef
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 14 slices American cheese
• 14 small soft hamburger buns

Serving suggestions: shredded lettuce, pickles and tomatoes

To Make

1. Divide the beef into 2-oz portions and form into balls; you will have 28.

2. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Working in batches, place the beef balls on the surface and use a large spatula to smash them as flat as they can possibly go. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes.

3. Flip and immediately place a slice of cheese on half of the patties. Thirty seconds later, transfer the other patties onto the ones with the cheese. Wait a few seconds, then place on the buns. Keep going until you have 14 burgers.

4. Serve with lettuce, pickles and tomatoes on the side.
