In my posts, I usually start off by telling you how healthy my recipes is... not the case here. Sorry : ) The best advice I can give you for this one is portion control! I based this recipe off of Blanc Burger's Inside Out Burger - Blue Cheese stuffed ground beef topped with Bacon.
1 pound of ground beef
8 ounces of blue cheese crumbles***
Salt & Pepper
Whole Wheat Buns
Heirloom Tomato
Bacon, cooked
Mayonaisse
Dijon Mustard
Ketchup
Horseradish (optional)
To make the patties (4), divide the beef into 8 flat patties. Top 4 of the patties with 1/4 of the blue cheese - be sure to keep the blue cheese concentrated in the center of the beef so it doesn't show on the edges. Top the blue cheese topped patties with the remaining 4 patties and press the edges to seal the two together. Salt & pepper generously. Grill on a hot grill for 4 minutes on each side.
Lower heat on the grill. Butter the buns, and place on the grill for about 2 minutes. To make the special mayo, mix together equal parts of mayo, ketchup and dijon. Add salt, pepper & sugar to taste. I also added a little prepared horseradish for an extra kick.
Spread the top bun with special mayo, top the burger with bacon and a slice of tomato.
