Butter one side of each slice of bread. On the unbuttered side of one slice, place a slice of cheddar cheese.
Spread the cooked ground beef mixture evenly on top of the cheese. Add another slice of cheese and top with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing out. - Grill the Sandwich:
Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the sandwich in the skillet. Grill for 4–5 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese has melted. - Serve:
