Weber Grill Cheeseburgers from Obie

                Weber Grill Cheeseburgers

1 ½    pounds ground chuck
1        tablespoon ketchup
1`       teaspoon dried basil
½      teaspoon dried thyme
½      teaspoon kosher salt
½      teaspoon Worchester sauce
½      teaspoon Texas Pete
¼      teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
4        slices Monterey Jack cheese or Cheddar-your choice

In a medium bowl, using your hands, gently combine the ground chuck with the ketchup, basil, thyme, salt, Worcestershire, hot sauce and pepper.  Gently shape into 4 patties, each about ¾ inch thick.

Grill the patties over Direct High heat until medium. Turning once

During the last minute of grilling, place a slice of cheese on each patty to melt and grill the hamburger buns, cut side down, until toasted.  Assemble the cheeseburgers with lettuce, tomato and ketchup and/or mustard, if desired.  Serve warm.

NOTE:   The recipe calls for grilling the burgers 8-10 minutes which is really too much.  I grill them til they are pink then take them off.  They continue cooking.  Nothing worse than an over-cooked burger.
