Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend for juiciness)
  • 4 oz blue cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 sesame seed burger buns
  • 1 cup lettuce, shredded
  • 1 large tomato, sliced

How to Make Blue Cheese Burger with Creamy Sauce

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined; avoid overworking the meat.
  2. Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each to prevent puffing during cooking.
  3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F for medium doneness.
  4. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with crumbled blue cheese and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.
  5. While the burgers are cooking, prepare the creamy sauce by mixing mayonnaise and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
  6. Toast the sesame seed buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
  7. Assemble the burgers by spreading the creamy sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Layer on the shredded lettuce, followed by the burger patty topped with melted blue cheese, and finish with a slice of tomato. Cap with the top bun and serve immediately.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Use high-quality ground beef for maximum flavor and juiciness.
  • Let the patties rest for a few minutes after cooking to retain their juices.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of blue cheese based on your personal taste preference.

Easy Variations

  • Swap blue cheese for feta or goat cheese for a different flavor profile.
  • Add crispy bacon for an extra savory crunch.
  • Top with caramelized onions or sautéed mushrooms for added depth.

What to Serve With It

  • Crispy sweet potato fries for a sweet and savory pairing.
  • A fresh garden salad for a refreshing contrast.
  • Coleslaw to add a crunchy texture and tangy flavor.

Storage and Reheating

Leftover burgers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through or in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
