Ingredients

1 lb ground beef

1 large avocado

2 Tbsp soft goat cheese

1 whole egg

1 Tbsp lemon juice

2 tsp salt

1 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp white pepper

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup avocado oil

1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

2 Tbsp sriracha sauce

2 tsp yellow mustard

Directions

Remove ground beef from the refrigerator and allow it to rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
While the beef comes to temperature, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Add the soft goat cheese and mash together with a fork until smooth and well combined. Stir in the lemon juice and set the filling aside.
Season the ground beef with 1 tsp salt, garlic powder, and white pepper. Gently mix with your hands until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the seasoned beef into 6 equal portions and gently form each into a thin patty about 4 inches wide, keeping them all the same size.
Spoon an equal amount of the avocado-goat cheese filling onto 3 of the patties, leaving a clear border of about 1/2 inch around the edges.
Place one unfilled patty on top of each filled patty, then press and pinch the edges together firmly to seal the burgers and enclose the filling completely.
Season both sides of each stuffed burger generously with salt and pepper to taste.
Heat a grill or grill pan to high heat. Grill the burgers for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F for ground beef. Avoid pressing down on the burgers while cooking.
While the burgers cook, prepare the sriracha dipping sauce. Add the avocado oil, olive oil, sriracha sauce, yellow mustard, and remaining 1 tsp salt to a jar or mixing container.
Use an immersion blender to blend the sauce ingredients until emulsified and creamy, about 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed.
Serve the hot stuffed burgers with the sriracha dipping sauce on the side.

The ingredient list is standard Charlotte supermarket fare—all items available at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, or Walmart without a special trip—but goat cheese at decent quality can run $6–8 for a small log, and avocados add another $2–3, pushing per-serving protein cost to $6–7 before sides. The stated 30 minutes glosses over proper burger formation and a resting period; realistically budget 40 minutes if you want the cheese and avocado centered without leaking. These are best eaten fresh off the grill same night, not a next-day reheater, which limits meal-plan flexibility for families juggling schedules. Ground beef is a Charlotte staple and goat cheese fits the region's growing food scene, making this work well for a special weeknight dinner or weekend entertaining when you can control timing.
