OMG these were so good. Everyone loved them. I pan fried them and then placed them under the broiler with the cheese mixture for a few minutes and toasted the buns. It was yummy, will definitly make again.

My family all gave high marks for these burgers. The cheese filling was the perfect addition. We did not add the onion slices as a garnish as none of us are too excited about raw onions on burgers. Since we are quite fond of burgers, this is a nice addition to our collection.

These are great burgers! The spread gives them just the right tang, and they look terrific! I'll definitely be making these again.
