Ingredients
1½ lb ground chuck
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons ranch dressing mix
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- In a large bowl, gently combine ground chuck, sour cream, ranch mix, and cheddar. Do not overmix.
- Divide into 4 equal portions and form into patties about ¾ inch thick.
- Let patties rest at room temperature for 10–15 minutes to meld flavors and improve texture.
- Preheat grill to medium heat. Grill patties, flipping once, until internal temp reaches desired doneness (145°F for rare, 160°F for medium).
Notes
- Add jalapeños or hot sauce for heat.
- Use different cheeses like pepper-jack or smoked gouda.
- Resting helps patties hold together better during cooking.
- Serve with your favorite burger toppings or on toasted buns.
