Mix finely grated or chopped cheese into ground beef, shape the mixture into patties, and cook them in a skillet or on a grill until fully cooked. Handle the mixture gently so the patties stay tender.
Cheddar is a popular choice for cheese hamburger steak because it melts well and has a pronounced flavor. American cheese or Swiss also works; use grated cheese in the mixture or place a slice inside a stuffed patty.
Cheese hamburger steak can break apart if the beef is too loosely packed, the cheese pieces are large, or the patties are flipped too soon. Shape them firmly, chill them before cooking, and turn them only after a crust forms.
To keep the cheese inside cheese hamburger steak, put a small amount between two thin beef patties and seal the edges all the way around. Avoid overfilling, which can force melted cheese through gaps as the meat cooks.
Cheese hamburger steak is a beef patty with cheese mixed in or enclosed inside it, and it can be served without a bun. A cheeseburger is typically a patty topped with cheese and served in a bun with toppings.
Cook cheese hamburger steak in a preheated skillet over medium heat, turning it only as needed and avoiding pressing it flat. Make sure the ground beef is thoroughly cooked; a thermometer is the most reliable way to check.
Serve cheese hamburger steak with a green salad, roasted vegetables, or mashed potatoes. For a burger-style meal, add it to a bun with lettuce, tomato, and pickles; a lighter plate pairs it with vegetables instead.
Yes, freeze uncooked cheese hamburger steak patties in a sealed freezer-safe container, separating them with parchment paper. Thaw them in the refrigerator before cooking, and do not refreeze patties that have already been thawed.
Cooked cheese hamburger steak keeps for 3–4 days in the refrigerator when promptly chilled and stored in a covered container. Reheat it until hot throughout, and discard it if it has been left at room temperature for too long.
Either method works: mix grated cheese into the beef, seal a slice inside the patty, or add cheese on top near the end of cooking. Topping the patty is simpler, while stuffing it gives you melted cheese in the center.

Cheese hamburger steak is a beef patty made with cheese mixed in or melted over the top. The hamburger has roots in the Hamburg steak associated with German immigrants, while the cheese-topped burger became popular in the United States. It can be cooked in a skillet or on a grill, at home as well as in a diner.
The browned outside gives way to a juicy centre, with melted cheese adding a savoury, creamy note. Serve it in a bun with lettuce, tomato and condiments, or plate it with potatoes and salad. It is protein-rich, though the cheese and beef also make it relatively rich in fat. For a lighter meal, choose a smaller bun or serve it with extra vegetables.
