Then turn the meat, brush again with melted butter, and grill for another 2 minutes. Then place 1 slice of cheese on each piece of meat and grill for another 1 minute. Place the finished meat on a plate.

Cut the buns in half lengthwise and grill them cut side down.
4

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLAVORED MAYONNAISE

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate for 10 minutes.

Tip

Do not overcook the meat. It should remain red inside, at most pink like a classic steak. This way, the meat will stay juicy.
