GRILLED BURGERS WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium high heat.
• Form 2 lbs. of ground beef into 1/3 lb. patties. Once the patties are formed do not overwork them or they may become tough.
• Place the patties on a plate and sprinkle the first side with 1/2 tsp. each of garlic powder and onion powder and 1/4 tsp. kosher salt and pepper. Flip the burgers over and repeat with another 1/2 tsp. each of garlic powder and onion power and 1/4 tsp. salt and pepper.
• Place the burger patties on the direct heat and cook uncovered for 4-5 minutes on the first side. Flip once and cook uncovered for another 4-5 minutes on the second side.
• Move the burgers to the outside of the grill or over a more indirect heat, cover, and cook until the inside reaches desired done-ness. The safe internal temperature for ground beef is 160 degrees Fahrenheit (this may be checked using a meat thermometer).A general cooking guide:3-4 minutes for medium-rare4-5 minutes for medium7-8 minutes for well-done
• Combine 1/3 cup mayo, 1/3 cup sour cream, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder, and a pinch of kosher salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir until completely combined using a fork or small whisk.

GRILLED BLUE CHEESE BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine ground beef, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; mix well, and shape into 16 thin patties. It easier to form 8 equally portioned balls of meat, then halve it to form the patties.
• Combine cream cheese, blue cheese, onion, horseradish, and mustard in a small bowl; beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until blended. Divide cheese mixture evenly among 8 patties; spread to within 1/2 inch of edges. Top with the remaining patties, pressing edges to seal. Make sure to seal them well.
• Grill hamburgers over medium-hot coals (350 to 400 degrees) 10 minutes on each side or to desired degree of doneness. Set aside, and keep warm.
• Saute mushrooms in melted butter in a skillet until tender. Top burgers with sauteed mushrooms.

GRILLED BLUE CHEESE BUTTER BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix 1/2 of a package of Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix into the raw hamburger. Divide ground beef into 8 equal pieces. I first divide it into 4 pieces then divide each piece again. Form the pieces into balls Flatten each ball to form thin patties of equal size. I find it easiest to form the patties on a sheet of waxed paper.
• To fill burgers, cut a 1/2 inch slice of the compound butter and place it in the center of each of the four patties, leaving a 1/4 inch rim. Place the remaining four patties on top to form four filled burgers. Gently press the edges of each burger together to form a seal. Sprinkle burgers liberally with salt and coarsely ground black pepper.
• Prepare your grill and cook burgers until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees. Assemble your burgers on buns with the fixings you prefer. Let rest for ten minutes before biting into the burger to avoid being squirted with hot molten cheese.
