GRILLED BLUE CHEESE BURGERS
I normally like to add more blue cheese, but my husband complains that they fall apart on the grill. Add additional sprinklings on top should you desire more of that blue-cheesy flavor. Can make the patties in the morning and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

BUFFALO SAUCE BURGERS STUFFED WITH BLUE CHEESE
Buffalo sauce, a mixture of melted butter and hot sauce, is a big claim to food fame for Buffalo, New York. It is normally served on fried chicken wings (Buffalo wings), but this burger is a great variation of the theme. The recipe is adapted from one published in my local newspaper and credited to David Joachim, author of The Tailgater's Cookbook. It was included in a feature on tailgating, and the idea was to get these ready to grill at home, then grill them at your tailgating affair. The original recipe called for either ground buffalo or ground beef. Since ground buffalo is not available where I live, I used ground beef. I forgot to notice how long prep took, so the time given is a guess. I served these on PaulaG's Recipe #139827--they are excellent and I highly recommend them.

Steps:
- Melt butter and whisk in hot sauce.
- Mix blue cheese and garlic in a small bowl.
- Using your hands, gently mix beef (or buffalo), celery seed, onion and 1/4 cup hot sauce mixture in a medium bowl until blended. Form into 12 patties, using a light touch; the patties should be about 4 1/2 inches in diameter and no more than 1/2 inch thick.
- Spoon about 2 teaspoons of cheese-garlic mixture in center of 6 patties, then top with remaining patties and press together, sealing edges.
- Cover and refrigerate until ready to grill. (Even if you aren't making these ahead of time, I think they hold together better after a little chill time).
- Heat grill to medium and oil grate.
- Grill burgers about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to taste. (I'll only eat ground beef cooked well, so I cooked a bit longer.) Brush with remaining hot sauce mixture during last 2 minutes of cooking. Toast buns if you like.
- (I couldn't think of many traditional condiments I wanted on this burger, so I just ate mine with extra buffalo sauce and lettuce).

Steps:
- Combine meat with breadcrumbs, egg, hot sauce, salt & pepper. Mix well, and form into eight patties of the same size.
- Divide the blue cheese into four equal portions. Place a portion of the cheese atop one patty, then top with another patty. Fold the patty's edges together so the cheese is hidden in the center. Seal well so nothing leaks out when cooking. Repeat three more times to make four burgers in total.
- Heat the butter in a skillet of medium-high heat. Cook patties, flipping once, for about 15 minutes.
- Serve inside buns and top with more hot sauce, if desired. Maybe some sliced red onions, tomato and lettuce as well. I served mine in pitas and topped with baby arugula and hot sauce.
