Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers

Sorry for the delay in the postings...we have been out of town 6 of the last 7 weekends! I got a new job teaching 2nd grade in Nashville and I have had to move classrooms the last two weeks. Hunter was nice enough to come down to the school on Saturday and Sunday of last weekend to help me move stuff. So to thank him, I made these burgers for him on Sunday night and they are amazing, but a heart attack waiting to happen! The recipe in really simple and they are really filling. Here is the recipe with pictures...enjoy!!

Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers

Ingredients:

4 oz. package of blue cheese crumbles

1/8 tps onion powder

1 lb of ground beef (we use lean ground beef 93/7)

Salt and Pepper

Here is a picture of all of the ingredients, we just added the Sweetwater Blue to drink while you are fixing it.

LuLu was trying to help out.

1. In a bowl, mash the blue cheese, onion powder, salt and pepper together. We tried to mash the blue cheese crumbles as small as possible.

2. We divided the ground beef into 8 equal pieces and formed the meat into balls and sprinkled with salt and pepper. We then took two pieces of wax paper and put the meat balls in between them and mashed them into really thin patties.

3. We then took one patty and spooned the cheese into the flatten patty. We took another patty and laid it on top to form the whole burger, pretty a blue cheese double doozie. We pushed the edges of the two patties together to form a pocket of cheese in the middle of the burger.

4. We cooked it on the grill and enjoyed with a side of grilled corn. We also sprinkled the left over blue cheese on top of the burgers.

Here are some pics....

Here are the burgers on the grill, you can see the cheese coming out of the side.

Here is the finished product with our side of grilled corn.

Like I said, not a healthy meal, but definitely a man's meal!
