Jucy Lucy


Jucy Lucy or Juicy Lucy is a cheeseburger with a difference. Instead of having the cheese on top of the patty, you split the patty and put the cheese inside then crimp the patty closed again with your fingers. If the patties are thin enough you can use two and crimp together. The patty is then cooked melting the cheese inside. A word of warning, the cheese gets very hot and splurges out on the bite so proceed with caution.

The JL originates from South Minneapolis where two Diners claim to have invented the Sandwich, Matt’s Bar and the 5-8 Club who are serious rivals.

The variants are endless different cheeses and different toppings, At TGFC HQ we like it with Smoked Cheese.
