Cook Time 10

Servings 2 servings

8 ounces Ground beef About 8 ounces, split into two 4oz portions; 80/20 recommended
2 tablespoons Water or beef broth 1 tablespoon per packet
Salt and Pepper To taste
2 tablespoons Diced onion (Optional)
2 tablespoons Sugar-free ketchup 1 tablespoon per packet
2 tablespoons Mustard 1 tablespoon per packet
2 slices Cheddar cheese slices 1 slice per packet
Low-carb buns or lettuce wraps (Optional, for serving)

Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Grab your heavy-duty aluminum foil. You'll need two pieces, roughly 8x10 inches each.
In a small bowl, gently combine your ground beef, water or broth, salt, pepper, and the diced onion if you're using it. Do not overmix! Form the mixture into two small patties.
Lay out your two pieces of foil flat. Place one patty on one side of each foil piece.
Dollop 1 tablespoon of sugar-free ketchup and 1 tablespoon of mustard right on top of each patty.
Place one glorious slice of cheddar cheese over the ketchup and mustard on each patty.
Carefully fold the foil over the patty and all those delicious fillings. Crimp the edges tightly to create a sealed packet.
Carefully place your two foil packets into the air fryer basket.
Cook for 10–12 minutes.
Carefully remove the packets from the air fryer. Open them up (watch out for hot steam!). Serve them warm – either sliding them out onto a plate, or placing them on your favorite low-carb bun or wrapping them in fresh lettuce.

Use Heavy-Duty Foil and seal packets tightly to prevent leaks. Watch out for hot steam when opening packets.
