Member's Choice! Skip buying frozen burgers for your next summer BBQ and make these cheddar burgers. They're easy to throw together. Thanks to barbecue sauce mixed into the ground beef, the juicy burgers have a bit of sweetness to them. On top of a toasted bun with your favorite fix-ins (we opted for bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato, and pickles), for a delicious grilled hamburger.
