How to Make Cheeseburger Po Boy

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 pound ground beef, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Gently mix until just combined.
  2. Form the beef mixture into 2 (1/2 pound) patties. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from bulging while cooking.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with 1 slice of cheddar cheese and allow it to melt.
  4. While the patties are cooking, toast 2 6-inch long French baguettes. Lightly brush both sides with olive oil and grill until lightly golden brown.
  5. Spread 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise on each baguette half. Add lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles to both bottom halves.
  6. Place the cooked cheeseburgers on top of the vegetables and add another layer of cheese if desired.
  7. Top with the other half of the baguette. Serve immediately and enjoy your incredible Cheeseburger Po'Boy!
