Take-out Tuesday, Blue Cheese Stuffed Burgers

We love hamburgers all year long,

but they seem to be especially tasty in the summertime

The other night we made burgers stuffed with blue cheese

and they were amazing!

If you’re not a fan of blue cheese,

I have other delicious cheese stuffed burgers

for you at the end of this post

Several hours before stuffing the burgers

make the blue cheese butter

Put softened butter, blue cheese crumbles,

chopped chives and Dijon mustard into a bowl

Mash it all together with the tines of a fork

Put it in the refrigerator to firm up

Make two thin hamburger patties

and put a thick layer of blue cheese on one patty

and then top with the second patty

and pinch edges together to seal

HHjr, the Chef, had taken over at this point

and I didn’t get a picture before he sealed them

The boys don’t like blue cheese so theirs will be topped with Cheddar

Drizzle the burgers with Worcestershire sauce

Grill the burgers until they are done to your liking

Serve on toasted, buttered buns

with additional blue cheese butter on top

The blue cheese butter melted into the burger meat

and they were so good!

Next time I’m going to add bacon pieces to the stuffing 😋

    Thank goodness Jim keeps the grill going all year long with the exception of extreme weather. He would love the blue cheese burger best, I prefer cheddar. Jay is on board with blue cheese as well so I want to try this recipe. Sounds delicious!

    I would love these blue cheese laden burgers, but I understand your grandsons’ reluctance. i was an adult before I found blue cheese at all tasty. Since they are exposed to all these wonderful flavors, there is a good chance that they will be more adventurous as their taste buds mature.

    • Me too Linda, I was super picky when I was little, and so were my children, but it’s funny how your taste changes when you’re grown up! One of my grandsons will eat just about anything, so I know he will come around to liking blue cheese.

  11. You’re talking my language! Blue cheese and anything!

  12. Laura says:

    Thank you so much for the recipe! It doesn’t get any better than this.

  13. Mary says:

    Such a tasty burger Jenna! Bacon would be a delicious addition. ♥
