BACON BLUE CHEESE BURGERS



Bacon Blue Cheese Burgers image

Very moist and cheesy burgers! Perfect for your cookout or anytime. These were featured on the local news for tailgating recipes for the Packers at Lambeau Field. I usually use kaiser rolls for the buns, as these are nice and juicy. If they are in season, be sure to throw some sliced Vidalia onions on top.

BLUE CHEESE & BACON BURGERS



Blue Cheese & Bacon Burgers image

My husband and I had burgers at a restaurant once that had blue cheese and bacon. It was so good, so I attempted to make our own. After lots of trial and error, I've got the recipe down. I typically make the burgers and freeze them for future use. The blue-cheese butter freezes well too for steaks or other uses.

Categories     Meat

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (8 ounce) package of crumbled blue cheese
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 lbs ground beef (the 75/25 or 85/15 works best...but you can use a leaner meat since there's so much butter in the re)
1 egg, mixed
1/4 cup breadcrumbs, unseasoned
1/4 cup fresh parsley, fresh chopped (you can also add some chives)
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 lb bacon, get a good thick deli sliced one or 1 lb pepper bacon

Steps:

  • Mix together the softened butter and blue cheese until well mixed. Roll into a log about 2-3 inches in diameter and wrap in Parchment paper. Refrigerate until hardened. You can also freeze if you don't plan to use for a while.
  • Once the butter is hardened, mix together the remaining ingredients in a large bowl by hand. Form the meat into 4-6 balls (depending on how big you want your burgers).
  • Slice 1/2 inch slices from hardened blue cheese/butter log. Place each butter/blue cheese circle into the middle of the burger ball and press into middle, shaping into a thick burger shape. Repeat for all remaining burgers. Ensure that butter/blue cheese is sealed into the middle of the meat. Grill burgers until desired doneness.
  • Cook bacon as usual on stove or oven. If you have non-peppered bacon, add a generous amount of pepper before cooking.
  • Serve burgers on your favorite bun with bacon. Add your favorite toppings -- fresh tomatoes, lettuce, extra blue cheese, ketchup, mustard, extra blue cheese, etc.
  • These are awesome! I love to make them huge -- 1/3 to 1/2 pounders and serve without a bun and have a salad as a side dish. They are so yummy!
