Instructions
  1. Break Speck up into small Nickle-size pieces and set aside. Slice Plum Tomato and set aside. Grate Asiago and set aside.
  2. Cook your Burger to order (4-5 minutes per side on high heat will usually yield a medium rare Burger). When your Burger is almost done cooking, slice of Fontina cheese on top and allow to melt. Use the Quick Steam Method for a faster melt.
  3. Build Your Burger: Bottom Bun, Arugula, Burger, Speck, Plum Tomatoes, Asiago, Pesto, Top Bun.
Recipe Notes

Quick Steam Method: Carefully place the slice of cheese onto the Burger. Use a restaurant condiment bottle to squirt water onto the grill around the Burger, then cover immediately with a pot lid or aluminum tray. Keep covered for 15-60 seconds (some cheeses take longer to melt than others). Remove cover to reveal beautifully melted cheese atop your Burger!

Remember: Adding water to a hot and or greasy surface can be dangerous. Be sure to take recommended safety precautions before attempting.
