Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 0.5 cups Blue cheese crumbles
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 4 pieces Hamburger buns
- 4 leaves Lettuce (optional, for serving)
- 4 slices Tomato slices (optional, for serving)
- 4 slices Red onion slices (optional, for serving)
- to taste Condiments of choice (e.g., mayo, mustard, ketchup)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can make the burgers tough.
Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions and flatten them into thin patties (about 4 inches in diameter).
Place a tablespoon of blue cheese crumbles in the center of 4 patties. Gently place the remaining 4 patties on top of the cheese-topped patties, pinching the edges together tightly to seal the cheese inside.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates or the skillet to prevent sticking.
Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Avoid pressing down on the patties while cooking, as this can push out the juices.
Toast the hamburger buns lightly on the grill or skillet, if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on the buns and topping with lettuce, tomato, red onion, and condiments of your choice.
Serve immediately and enjoy your decadent Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers!
