I tasted these burgers in Athens, Georgia. They were so good that I made my own recipe. It combines fresh basil, Gorgonzola cheese, and garlic, and it's easy enough for a quick and simple dinner. Serve them on toasted sourdough or ciabatta buns. Ingredients:
1 pound ground sirloin, or extra lean beef |
1 tablespoon minced garlic |
1/8 teaspoon onion powder |
1 (4 ounce) container crumbled gorgonzola cheese |
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped |
salt and black pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat. Lightly oil grill grate, and place about 4 inches from heat source.
2. Mix the ground sirloin, garlic, onion powder, Gorgonzola cheese, and basil together in a large bowl until evenly blended. Divide mixture evenly to form four patties.
3. Cook patties on preheated grill until meat is evenly browned and center is no longer pink, about 5 minutes on each side.
