Time 41m

Yield 6 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 lb ground chuck
1 lb ground beef round
6 fresh kaiser rolls, split
3 -6 leaves romaine lettuce, torn
2 tomatoes, sliced
1 red onion, sliced
1/3 lb premium blue cheese (not crumbled)
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
3 ounces premium blue cheese (optional)
1/4 cup mayonnaise (optional)
1/4 cup sour cream (optional)
1 clove garlic, minced (optional)
1/4 teaspoon onion powder (optional)

Steps:

  • You will need 1/2 pound blue cheese total (get the block type cheese, not the crumbled stuff in packages).
  • Prepare your dressing by crumbling 3 ounces of cheese and mixing it thoroughly with the other dressing ingredients and setting aside to chill (do not do this more than a few hours before).
  • Mix together your spice mix in a large shallow bowl or plate and set aside until needed.
  • Mix together chuck and round, then separate mixture into 1/3 pound pieces (just over 5 ounces)- you should have 6.
  • Divide each piece in half and form into a thin patty and place onto wax paper on whatever platter you are working with.
  • Take the 1/3 pound of blue cheese and cut into 6 divided sections (approximate) and place thin slices onto 6 of the patties you have formed.
  • Cover these patties with the remaining 6 patties and form a pinched seal around the edges, making it tight.
  • Pick up each patty, and gently reform the burger and pat it back out to thinness, if needed; rest them on waxed paper.
  • Take patties one by one and coat in the seasoning mixture, not forgetting to coat the side edges and patting them nicely flat when finished; rest on waxed paper.
  • Cook over heated coals or on gas grill until it is cooked through or temperature reads 160F (do not press on patties while grilling).
  • Allow patties to rest 10-15 minutes after cooking for cheese to settle.
  • Serve on split kaiser rolls (may toast them if you like) with appropriate condiments: lettuce, tomato, sliced red onion, and a little blue cheese dressing (instead of mayo; optional).

Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons granulated onion
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
6 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup roasted garlic, minced
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 dashes Worcestershire sauce
4 pinches fresh ground black pepper
2 pounds ground beef (premium chuck 80/20 blend)
12 ounces blue cheese, such as Point Reyes
8 slices applewood smoked bacon, cooked crispy
4 soft brioche buns, cut in half
1 kosher dill pickle, finely sliced
1/2 Vidalia onion, very finely sliced
1 heirloom tomato, finely sliced
1/4 head iceberg lettuce, finely sliced
1/4 cup canola oil

Steps:

  • For the blackening spice: In a small mixing bowl, combine the pepper, cumin, granulated onion, cayenne, granulated garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, chili powder and salt. Mix to blend. Store in an airtight container if not using immediately.
  • For the garlic butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the butter and garlic, and cook until the butter has melted and garlic has become fragrant, 5 to 6 minutes. Mix in the parsley. Reserve to the side in a small bowl.
  • For the donkey sauce: In a small mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, roasted garlic, mustard, salt, Worcestershire and pepper. Mix well. Cover and reserve.
  • For the black and blue burger: Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
  • Divide the ground beef into eight portions; roll each into a loose ball, then flatten into a 4-inch patty. On four of the patties, place 2 ounces of the blue cheese. Cover with a second patty and gently seal the edges to form a stuffed patty about 1 1/2-inches thick.
  • Season the stuffed patties on both sides with the blackening spice. Grill, spaced 3 inches apart to prevent flare ups, until a crust has developed on the first side, about 3 minutes. Flip, and cook to develop a crust on the reverse side, 2 minutes. Top each burger with 2 slices of bacon and 1 ounce of the remaining blue cheese. Cover with a piece of foil and cook another 30 seconds to melt the cheese. Remove the burgers to a serving tray to rest.
  • Lightly brush the cut sides of the brioche buns with garlic butter, and toast on the grill until crisp and golden, 5 to 10 seconds.
  • To assemble: Smear the buns with some donkey sauce. Layer the bottom buns with pickles, onions and a burger. Top with tomatoes and lettuce. Cover with the bun tops and secure with wooden skewers. Serve.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ground beef: Opt for lean ground beef with a fat content of 85% or higher for a juicy and flavorful burger.
  • Season the beef liberally: Don't be afraid to season the ground beef generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will enhance the flavor of the burger.
  • Form the patties gently: Handle the ground beef gently when forming the patties to avoid compacting them. This will help ensure a tender and juicy burger.
  • Cook the burgers over medium-high heat: Sear the burgers over medium-high heat to create a flavorful crust, then reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until the burgers reach your desired doneness.
  • Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the burgers are cooked to perfection, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The burgers should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for medium-rare, 165°F (74°C) for medium, or 170°F (77°C) for well-done.
  • Let the burgers rest: After cooking, let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the burger, resulting in a more tender and flavorful experience.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking multiple burgers, avoid overcrowding the pan. This will prevent the burgers from cooking evenly and can result in steamed burgers.
  • Experiment with different toppings: The possibilities for burger toppings are endless. Get creative and try different combinations to find your favorite. Some popular options include cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and condiments like ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

With its juicy beef patty, smoky bacon, tangy blue cheese, and sweet caramelized onions, the Zesty Black Blue Burger is a flavor-packed delight that is sure to satisfy your burger cravings. By following these tips, you can create a delicious and satisfying burger that will be a hit at your next cookout or gathering.
