How to Make Bleu Cheese Burgers

  1. In a large bowl, gently combine 1.5 lbs ground beef, 1/2 cup crumbled Stella brand bleu cheese, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  2. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, about 1 inch thick.
  3. Wrap the patties tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and prevent shrinkage during cooking.
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  7. Add the burgers to the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes per side, until nicely browned.
  8. Transfer the seared burgers to the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  10. Serve immediately on warmed pita bread with additional bleu cheese sauce (recipe #264984 recommended), and sliced tomatoes for a '2bleu style' gyro.
