Star-Spangled Cheeseburgers

Star-Spangled Cheeseburgers

2 pounds ground beef
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup honey mustard
8 slices American cheese
8 hamburger buns, split
Romaine lettuce, tomato slices

Combine mayonnaise and mustard. Cut star shapes from cheese with cookie cutter.
Lightly shape ground beef into eight 1/2-inch thick patties. Place patties on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, uncovered, 11 to 13 minutes to medium (160°F or 70°C) doneness, until not pink in center and juices show no pink color, turning occasionally. Season with salt and pepper after turning. About 1 minute before burgers are done, top with cheese stars.
Serve in buns with sauce, lettuce and tomato.

Makes 8 servings.
