Since it’s snack time let me tell you a little recipe I made this weekend. I’ll call it: Bleu Cheese Hamburger. If you don’t like bleu cheese, you won’t like this at all. It’s loosely based on Red Robin’s Bleu Ribbon Burger and Tako’s steak topping.
Ingredients:
hamburger
garlic powder
salt
pepper
crumbled bleu cheese
butter
salt
pepper
Preparation:
Take hamburger, however much you need to make enough to feed everyone. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, etc. to taste. Shape into patties. Cook on medium heat. Or medium high if you like a nice rare hamburger. Mmmm, rare hamburger. Make sure you flip the burgers once each.
Take (1) part butter to (3) parts bleu cheese. (One tablespoon butter and 3 tablespoons bleu cheese makes enough for 2 burgers. Three if you’re stingy. You’re going to have to do the math here if you are making more than two burgers.) Smoosh together using your favorite utensil or fingers. Add salt and pepper to taste. Smoosh more.
Remove burgers from pan when sufficiently heated. Apply topping. Cover loosely, let rest 5 minutes. Serve on crusty rolls with the usual suspects.
