Espresso Rubbed Barbecued Burgers

Ingredients

  • 1 to 1-1/4 lbs. ground beef
  • 1 tsp. espresso powder or instant coffee powder
  • 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp. hickory brown sugar barbecue sauce
  • 4 slices Sargento® Sliced Reduced Sodium Colby-Jack Cheese
  • 4 hamburger buns, split
  • 4 lettuce leaves
  • 4 slices large tomato

Directions

  1. Form meat into four patties 5 inches in diameter and about 1/3-inch thick. Combine espresso powder and pepper; sprinkle over both sides of patties.
  2. Grill patties, covered, on preheated medium-hot grill, 4 to 5 minutes per side or until no longer pink in center. Brush barbecue sauce over patties; place cheese over patties.
