Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers

Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers are a gourmet twist on the classic burger, delivering a burst of tangy, creamy blue cheese with every bite. These burgers are perfect for those who love bold flavors, as the rich blue cheese pairs beautifully with the savory, juicy beef. The cheese is tucked inside the patties, creating a delicious molten center that melts perfectly as the burgers cook. Whether grilled or pan-seared, these burgers are sure to impress and make any meal feel special. Serve them on toasted buns with your favorite toppings for a truly indulgent experience.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend is ideal)
  • 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 4 burger buns
  • Lettuce, tomato, red onion, and other desired toppings
  • Condiments of choice (such as mayonnaise, mustard, or ketchup)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Beef Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are evenly distributed, being careful not to overwork the meat.
  2. Form the Patties: Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a thin patty. Place about 1-2 tablespoons of crumbled blue cheese in the center of 4 of the patties.
  3. Seal the Burgers: Place the remaining 4 patties on top of the blue cheese-topped patties. Press the edges together firmly to seal the cheese inside, ensuring there are no gaps or openings. Gently shape the burgers into uniform patties.
  4. Cook the Burgers: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Be careful not to press down on the burgers while cooking, as this can cause the cheese to ooze out.
  5. Toast the Buns: If desired, toast the burger buns on the grill or in a skillet for a minute or two until golden and slightly crisp.
  6. Assemble the Burgers: Place the cooked burgers on the toasted buns. Add your desired toppings and condiments, then close the burgers with the top bun.
  7. Serve: Serve the blue cheese stuffed burgers immediately, with your favorite side dishes such as fries, onion rings, or a fresh salad.

These Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers are a decadent treat that brings a burst of flavor to the classic burger, making them perfect for a special meal or a gourmet burger night.
