Steakhouse Blue Cheese Burgers Recipes

STEAKHOUSE BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high heat.
• In a large bowl, mash the bread and milk together with a fork until it forms a chunky paste. Add the salt, pepper, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and ketchup and mix well.
• Add the ground beef and scallions and break the meat up with your hands. Mix everything together until evenly combined. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and form compact balls. Flatten the balls into ¾-inch patties about 4½ inches across. Form a slight depression in the center of each patty to prevent the burgers from puffing up on the grill.
• Oil the grilling grates. Grill the burgers, covered, until nicely browned on the first side, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip burgers and continue cooking for a few minutes more until desired doneness is reached. Before serving, toast the buns on the cooler side of the grill if desired.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The uncooked burgers can be frozen for up to three months. (Freeze the burgers on a baking sheet or plate so their shape sets, then transfer them to a sealable plastic bag for easy storage.) Defrost the burgers overnight in the refrigerator prior to serving and then cook as directed.

BLUE CHEESE BURGERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, blue cheese, chives, hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, salt, and mustard. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Preheat grill for high heat. Gently form the burger mixture into about 12 patties.
• Oil the grill grate. Grill patties 5 minutes per side, or until well done. Serve on rolls.

BLUE CHEESE BURGERS

Steps:

• Carefully mix the meats, bread crumbs, steak sauce, eggs, salt, and pepper with the tines of a fork, but do not mash them. Lightly form hamburger patties and press lightly into shape.
• Prepare a charcoal or a stove-top grill.
• Cook the hamburgers for 4 minutes on 1 side, then turn and cook 3 minutes on the other side for medium-rare. Remove to a plate and cover with aluminum foil. Allow the hamburgers to rest for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, grill the buns, cut side down, for 1 minute, until toasted. Place a hamburger and a slice of blue cheese in each bun, plus arugula and tomato, if desired, and serve hot.

STEAKHOUSE BURGERS

Steps:

• Heat 2 inches of oil over medium-high heat in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan to 365 degrees F.
• While the oil is heating, add the bacon to a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook until crispy and brown on both sides, about 10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve 2 tablespoons bacon fat in a small bowl and set aside to cool.
• Place the onions in the buttermilk. Add the flour to a bowl or shallow baking dish. Scoop out a few onions at a time and dredge in the flour, shaking to remove any excess flour. Add to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes, then remove to a baking sheet with a wire rack and sprinkle with House Seasoning while still hot. Repeat with the remaining onions and set aside.
• Using your hands, mix the ground beef along with the cooled, reserved bacon fat and the garlic powder. Form the mixture into 4 loosely packed equal-sized patties with a slight dimple in the center to prevent them from doming. Place onto a baking sheet or large plate and sprinkle both sides of each patty generously with salt and pepper. Heat the skillet that was used to cook the bacon over medium heat. Add the burger patties, dimple side up, and cook on the first side, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the patties and cook until the internal temperature of the burger is 135 to 140 degrees F for medium (the internal temperature will continue to rise when you remove the burger from heat to reach the ideal temperature of 145 degrees F), about 5 minutes more. Remove the patties from the skillet.
• Add the brioche buns to the same skillet and toast until lightly browned.
• To build the burgers, add one patty on top of a toasted brioche bun half. Drizzle over a couple tablespoons of the Blue Cheese Dressing. Top with a few fried onions, a slice of iceberg lettuce, another drizzle of Blue Cheese Dressing and two slices bacon. Top with the second half of the bun and place a cherry tomato on top, using a steak knife as a skewer to hold the burger together. Serve immediately.
• Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Keep in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
• Whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, minced chives, garlic salt and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined. Stir in the blue cheese crumbles. Refrigerate until ready to use.

STEAKHOUSE BLUE CHEESE BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Arrange the bacon on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and cracked pepper. Bake until the bacon is crisp and the sugar is gooey, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven, keep warm and set aside. Leave the oven on.
• While the bacon bakes, heat a cast-iron griddle over medium heat until hot.
• Spread the mayonnaise on the split sides of the buns and griddle mayo-side down until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
• Shape the beef into 4 equal patties. Spread the mustard over each patty and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the butter and flip the patties.
• Top the patties with the blue cheese crumbles. Bake until the cheese starts to yield--the blue cheese will not melt--2 to 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spread the steak sauce on the bottom buns. Top with the patties and bacon. Close the burgers and serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for 20 minutes.
• For the steakhouse spice mix: Mix together the peppercorns, garlic, onion, parsley, dry mustard and red pepper flakes in a small bowl.
• For the burgers: Gently toss together the chuck and sirloin in a large bowl, making sure not to overwork the mixture. Form the beef into four 3/4-inch-thick patties, each about 4 inches in diameter. Sprinkle them generously with salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Spread the steakhouse spice mix evenly on a plate. Coat both sides of the patties with the mixture.
• Place the patties in the hot skillet; do not press down with a spatula. Cook until the patties are seared and browned on one side, about 3 1/2 minutes, then flip and top each patty with one-quarter of the butter. Cook on the second side until browned and the burgers are medium-rare, about 3 1/2 minutes more.
• Assemble the burgers using your favorite buns, toppings and condiments.

BLUE CHEESE BURGERS

Steps:

• Shape into patties and chill: Shape into patties, about 1/2 inch thick and larger than your bun. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes or until you are ready to cook.
• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for cooking over high direct heat: Using tongs and a folded up paper towel dipped in vegetable oil, oil the grill grates. Make sure grill is hot and well oiled before laying down the patties.
