Juicy Lucy or is Jucy Lucy

This past weekend watching a marathon on Man v. Food, the host Adam visited Minneapolis, Minnesota and took the Jucy Lucy/Juicy Lucy challenge. In the South area of Minneapolis there are two restaurants competing for the best specially made Jucy Lucy/Juicy Lucy cheeseburger. The two restaurants are Matt's Bar and just down the street is The 5-8 Club. The difference in the burgers is the way the two establishments spell the name and one offers more of a variety of cheese.

The burgers looked great, so we decided to try our own version of the cheese stuffed burgers.

Ingredients:
8 pre-made packaged hamburger patties
2 T. olive oil
8 slices of cheese—cut in fours (we used Monterey Pepper Jack cheese)
1/2 chopped onion
Mrs. Dash to taste (or salt and pepper your choice)
4 Hamburger buns

Directions:
Place 8 of the quarter slices of cheese and place it into the middle of 2 of the hamburger patties. Press the edges of the patties tightly together to keep the cheese inside. Do the same for three more patties to make a total of four hamburger.

Add olive oil to frying pan and heat. Add chopped onions. Place all four hamburgers into pan and cook to taste. I covered the pan to make sure that it cooked all the way through. Important to cook until the cheese melts.

Place patties in hamburger buns, top with cooked onions and add your favorite dressing i.e. catsup, mustard, mayo, pickles, etc.
