Ingredients:

  • 1 (8 oz) package of crumbled blue cheese
  • 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)
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, fresh chopped (you can also add some chives)
  • salt , to taste
  • pepper , to taste
  • 1 lb bacon

Directions:

  1. 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.
  2. 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).
  3. 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.
  4. Cook bacon as usual on stove or oven. If you have non-peppered bacon, add a generous amount of pepper before cooking.
  5. Serve burgers on your favorite bun with bacon. Add your favorite toppings - fresh tomatoes, lettuce, extra blue cheese, ketchup, mustard, extra blue cheese, etc.
  6. 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!
