Wanted to make a big ol juicy lucy but needed a big bun. So I made some brioche buns.

Then I made the cheese. Extra sharp cheddar with sodium citrate, sodium hexametaphosphate, milk, butter and heated in the SV then blended and pour into a form. This creates a nice melty cheese like velveeta but better flavor.

Then split a pound of beef and formed the burger around the puck of cheese. Into the SV at 132 for 1.5 hours.

Cast iron sear and added a bacon weave topping with pepperjack on top.

Damn good. Thanks for lookin'!
 
Have heard of using sodium citrate to make smooth melty cheeses, but what does sodium hexametaphosphate do in this process?
