Equipment

  • Blackstone griddle (or other griddle)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef preferable 80/20
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 8 slices rye bread
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 4 slices pepper Jack cheese

Instructions
 

  • Season the beef with salt and pepper. Shape it into 4 even balls.
  • Heat the griddle to medium-high. Place each beef ball onto the griddle, leaving plenty of space between each one. Use a smasher or strong spatula to press each one into a ½-inch-thick patty.
  • Cook, flipping once, until the patties are seared on each side and just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Spread one side of each slice of bread with 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise.
  • Reduce the griddle heat to medium-low. Place four slices of the bread mayo-side down on the griddle. Top with the beef patties and a slice of cheese. Place the second slice of bread mayo-side up on top.
  • Toast the sandwiches until golden brown and the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Let it cook--Resist the urge to flip your patty frequently. Let it cook until it develops a nice browned crust, then flip just once.
  • Add onions--To make it a true classic, cook onions alongside your beef patties and add them to the sandwich, on top of the cheese.
  • Make it extra cheesy--Add an extra slice to each sandwich.
