30 minThese aren’t your average backyard burgers.
Two thin seasoned beef patties get sandwiched around a filling of tangy blue cheese, creamy cream cheese, and tender mushroom pieces, then sealed up tight and thrown on the grill.
As they cook, that cheese filling melts into a rich, gooey center that hits you with every single bite.
Thirty minutes from fridge to plate. That’s it.
Grill Tips
- Press the edges of the patties together firmly so the cheese doesn’t leak out during cooking.
- Use ground beef with at least 80/20 fat content for juicier, more flavorful burgers.
- Let the cream cheese soften fully before mixing with the blue cheese so it spreads evenly.
- Resist the urge to press down on the burgers while grilling. You’ll squeeze out all that melted cheese goodness.
Ingredients
Directions
Mix meat, Worcestershire sauce and seasonings.
Shape the mixture into 12 thin patties, each about 4-inches in diameter.
Mix the cream cheese and the blue cheese.
Top each of 6 patties with the cheese mixture, spreading to within ½ inch of the edge; press the mushrooms into the cheese.
Cover each patty with one of the remaining patties, sealing the edges firmly.
Broil or grill the patties 4-inches from the heat, turning once, until the desired doneness is reached and cheese is melted, about 10 to 15 minutes.
