If you are a cheese lover, these stuffed burgers are for you! It's a must-try for anyone who loves a good burger.

I slather it with bbq sauce both you could skip that and serve them with burger sauce instead.

These burgers are a great addition to a burger board for a backyard BBQ!

Serve with cowboy baked beans or cowboy corn casserole on the side.
