Bacon and Roquefort Stuffed Burgers Recipe

Posted on 22. Jun, 2009 by admin in Beef Burgers

“This is one of our favorite hamburger recipes. You can substitute bleu, gorgonzola, or feta for the Roquefort cheese. Don’t forget the American fries!”

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

* 2 pounds ground beef
* 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
* 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
* 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
* 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
* 4 ounces Roquefort or other blue cheese, crumbled
* 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
* 4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
* 1 tomato, sliced
* 1 red onion, sliced
* 4 leaves lettuce

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large bowl, lightly mix the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and pepper. Divide into 8 equal portions and flatten each one into 1/4 inch thick patty. In a separate bowl, combine the crumbled bacon, Roquefort cheese and thyme. Place an equal portion of the bacon mixture onto 4 of the patties. Top with the remaining 4 patties, pressing the edges together to enclose the filling.
2. Preheat a grill for medium heat. When hot, lightly oil the grate.
3. Grill the patties for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Serve immediately on toasted buns, topped with tomato, onion and lettuce.
