Blue Cheese Burger

4.71 from 24 votes

Ingredients  

  • 4 burger patties
  • 4 ounces Blue Cheese, recommended: Gorgonzola Dolce
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 burger buns
  • Lettuce and sliced tomatoes for serving

Instructions 

  • If making on the stove, start by preheating a cast iron skillet until smoking. If grilling outside, prepare a charcoal grill.
  • Butter the buns and grill, cut side down, for about 1 minute or until toasted. Reserve.
  • Season the burger patties with salt and pepper.
  • If using the cast iron, lightly grease with some olive oil. Cook the patties for about 4 minutes, flip and add 1/4 of the blue cheese per burger. Cover with a lid and cook for 3 more minutes for medium-rare. Allow the burgers to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of mayo to the buns. Place the burgers in each bun and finish with some lettuce and tomato.
  • Serve hot!
