Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef (Beef, Turkey, Veggie-Your Choice)
  • 6 slices of bacon
  • 3 hamburger buns
  • 3 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • Lettuce leaves
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Equipment

  • Grill or grill pan
  • Skillet
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Cook the Bacon: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the bacon slices. Cook the bacon until crispy, flipping occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
  2. Prepare the Patties: Divide the ground beef into 3 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty, making sure they are slightly larger than the diameter of the hamburger buns. Season both sides of the patties with salt and pepper.
  3. Grill the Patties: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates or grill pan with vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Place the burger patties on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired level of doneness is reached.
  4. Toast the Buns: While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger bun son the grill or in a toaster.
  5. Assemble the Burgers: To assemble each burger, place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a grilled burger patty, followed by a couple of slices of crispy bacon, some sliced onion, tomato slices, and crumbled blue cheese. Place the top half of the bun over the toppings.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Bacon Blue Cheese Burgers immediately while they're hot and juicy. Pair them with your favorite sides like fries, potato salad, or coleslaw for a complete meal.
