Just had something similar happen. Here is my “fix”: Cook your burger as you would. Pull it at the desired time for cheese. Place cheese on burger, give a slight press so that it engages fully. Close the drawer of air fryer and LEAVE IT OFF for at least thirty seconds so the cheese has a chance to bond. Then restart air fryer to complete the process. Hopefully this solves the problem for the next cheeseburger should you ever emotionally recover.
I don’t think you need to get that fancy with it, I’ve had success with a similar strategy of cooking the burgers as normal, then placing slices of cheese on them with rhe door slightly ajar, and letting them melt with the residule heat
i’ve never tried air frying burgers. how’s it compare to a grill or pan?
I did it a few times, saves the hassle of cleaning a pan and avoids all the smoke. Doesn’t taste nearly as good.
I don’t know. Like you, I only use grill or pan for burgers. My event was with extra Parmesan on a french bread pizza. Fan knocked it right off the top.
please tell me it was at least more solid than that Kraft powdered parmesan. because that would deserve a light ribbing.
I am a man of culture and taste (with my French bread pizza). It was shaved parm. So good, but yah the whirlwind catches it easily.
Worse, you need to wash it now
That is called seasoning.
I thought you meant the cheese, at first. I believe trying to rinse the cheese in the sink is when I’d start crying and eventually snap.
This would put me on suicide watch if I was having a bad day
Quick, get this man ChatGPT!
Nooo, we wanna help him off the ledge not talk him over it!
Shouldn’t have used light cheese. badum tsss
Ooh #firstworldproblems, it’s been a while!
“I am never gonna financially recover from this.”
Just use full long tooth picks to keep the cheese on. Leave the picks sticking out long enough for you to find them and remove them after.
I have shredded cheese. :(
It doesn’t look like cheese, more like plastic.
Cheese side down next time.
… I’ll just do mine on the stovetop real quick, but thank you!
Thoughts and prayers, brother. That is heartbreaking.
