Instructions
- Put the ground beef and slices of blue cheese in a bowl.
- Crumble and break up the cheese and mix in well to the ground beef.
- Divide the mixture into 4 quarters and take the meat from 1 quarter. Between your hands form a tight ball with no cracks or air pockets.
- Take this ball and flatten between your fingers, ensuring there are no cracks or ragged edges. Form beef patties that are slightly larger than the bun diameter.
- Spoon on the blackening seasoning. Push the seasoning into the surface of the meat to help it adhere.
- Continue to spoon the seasoning onto both sides of each burger.
- If using lean meat (fat content is less than 20%), then add 1 tbsp of oil to a frying pan. My burgers had a relatively high fat content, so I was able to place them directly into a preheated frying pan. Fry the Burger patties on both sides and remove them from the pan once 160 degrees F. has been reached.
- When the Burgers are frying, prepare the vegetables. Wash and slice the tomato, peel and slice the onion, and wash the lettuce leaves. Finally, toast the buns and butter them.
