Ingredients:
2 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend for juicy burgers)
12 slices American cheese (or your favorite melting cheese)
4 sesame seed buns
2 cups French fries (store-bought or homemade)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional toppings: ketchup, mustard, mayo.
Instructions:
Prepare the Fries:
If you’re making homemade fries, cut the potatoes into fries, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes, then drain and pat dry. Fry in hot oil (350°F/175°C) until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
If using store-bought fries, cook them according to the package instructions.
Form and Cook the Patties:
Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, slightly larger than your buns to account for shrinkage while cooking.
Season both sides of each patty with salt and pepper.
Heat a large skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties in batches for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of American cheese on each patty. Cover the skillet or grill to melt the cheese.
Prepare the Buns:
Toast the buns in a skillet or on the grill until golden brown.
Assemble the Monster Burger:
Start with the bottom bun and place a cheesy patty on top.
Repeat with more patties, stacking 3 to 4 cheesy patties on top of each other.
Add a generous handful of fries on top of the stack.
Top with any condiments you like (ketchup, mustard, mayo) and finish with the top bun.
Serve:
Serve your monster cheeseburger hot with any remaining fries on the side and a cold drink. Get ready to tackle this towering burger!
Notes:
For a fun twist, you could layer bacon, onions, or pickles between the patties.
If you want to go all out, consider adding another layer of toppings like jalapeños, crispy onions, or even onion rings.
