Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 100 grams Blue cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 medium, sliced Yellow onion
- 2 pieces Hamburger buns
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 leaves Leaf lettuce
- 1 medium, sliced Tomato
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
Combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Mix gently with your hands to avoid overworking the meat.
Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a thin patty, slightly larger than the size of the bun.
Place 50 grams of blue cheese in the center of one patty, then cover with another patty. Seal the edges by pinching the beef together. Repeat with the remaining patties. You should have two stuffed burgers.
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil.
Place the burgers on the hot skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness and the blue cheese has melted inside.
While the burgers cook, melt the butter in a separate pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and golden brown, about 10 minutes.
Toast the hamburger buns in a dry skillet or oven until lightly golden and warm.
To assemble, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Add a leaf of lettuce, a slice of tomato, and the cooked burger. Top with caramelized onions and the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes such as fries or a salad.
