Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Ground beef
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 0.5 cups Blue cheese crumbles
- 4 slices Provolone cheese slices
- 0.5 cups BBQ sauce
- 4 count Hamburger buns
- 4 count Lettuce leaves
- 4 slices Tomato slices
- 1 tbsp Cooking oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Avoid overworking the meat.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick and slightly larger than your hamburger buns, as they will shrink during cooking.
Preheat a skillet, grill, or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking oil.
Place the burger patties on the skillet or grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side until browned and seared.
Flip the burgers and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. An internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) is recommended for fully cooked burgers.
In the final minute of cooking, top each burger patty with a slice of provolone cheese. Cover the skillet or grill to allow the cheese to melt.
Toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly browned.
Assemble the burgers: Spread a spoonful of BBQ sauce over the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf, a burger patty with melted provolone, a generous sprinkle of blue cheese crumbles, and a slice of tomato on top. Add more BBQ sauce to the top bun if desired, and place it over the toppings.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries or a salad.
