"Feeling blue? well these delicious gourmet bacon blue cheeseburgers will lift your spirits!"

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground sirloin
  • 4 tablespoons mayo
  • ½ cup blue cheese crumbles
  • ½ cup real bacon crumbles
  • ½  cup diced Vidalia onion
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • ½  teaspoon salt
  • Thick sliced bacon
  • Vidalia onion, sliced
  • Tomato, sliced
  • Mayo
  • Blue cheese crumbles
  • Whole grain / high fiber hamburger buns

Preparation

  1. Cook the bacon until it is crisp. Remove to a plate.
  2. Preheat grill to medium-high.
  3. Place ground sirloin, mayo, blue cheese crumbles, bacon crumbles, diced Vidalia onion, pepper and salt into a large bowl and combine. Form into large patties.
  4. Oil the grill rack and grill the burgers about 6-8 minutes per side or to your liking. Top the burgers with Cheddar cheese and cook until the cheese begins to melt.
  5. Assemble the burgers: Spread mayo on the bottom half of each bun and sprinkle blue cheese crumbles onto the mayo next add a slice of onion and tomato. Place the burger on top and then add thick sliced bacon to the mix. Spread a bit more mayo on the top half of the bun and once again cover the mayo with blue cheese crumbles! Now carefully place it on top!
  6. A simple garnish for these would be a side of olives on each plate. Of course a blue cheese salad never goes wrong here either!
