4th of July Grilled Cheese Burger

This grilled cheese burger was inspired by the Sonic Grilled Cheese Double Burger and our perfect for Father's day! A delicious mash up of a grilled cheese and a cheeseburger. The patties are thin, slightly crispy, and irresistible.

Q: Can I use a regular hamburger bun?

A: You can! It'll be more like a regular double-cheeseburger than a grilled cheese burger, but it'll still be delicious!

Q: What condiments should I use?

A: Anything that you prefer! We like a combination of mustard and mayonnaise but it's all based on your preference.
