Not Kraft Singles, you can get those anywhere, I'm talking "American Cheese" the kind of cheese that you get on your burgers at fast food restaurants, McDonald's, Burger King etc. When I make burgers at home I don't like how regular cheddar separates when it melts and Kraft singles are too melty, i need the classic fast food cheese. here's a link. http://www.spaceelevatorblog.com/Images/AmericanCheeseSlices.jpg Mon Apr 06 08:44:45 -0700 2009 182736 Bobby Wham 1 4571630 What about the Kraft Extra Cheddar brand? That's what I buy for my burgers at home. I like it cuz it comes in a big block and you peel off the slices, seems more like what you'd see in a restaurant. Melts nicely, but it's thicker than Kraft slices so it doesn't evaporate.

At home I basically imitate the Shake Shack smashburger method with my cast-iron pan, and am all about the American cheese with it. So yeah, I've thought this through and tried them all, and Extra Cheddar is my fave.

You'll just need to sample different low-end brands such as Velveeta to meet your needs. My suggestion - the cheaper the "better" (for your needs).

Unlike individually wrapped slices, make sure you wrap the unused ones well once the original packaging has been opened.
