Condiments

Method

Preparing the Patties

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Use your hands or a spatula to mix until evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form each portion into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.

Cooking the Bacon

  1. 3

    Cook Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess fat.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 4

    Grill or Fry Patties

    Using the same skillet or a grill, cook the burger patties over medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes per side for medium doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place blue cheese crumbles on top of the patties to melt.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Toast Buns

    Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Layer Ingredients

    Spread mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a lettuce leaf, the cooked burger patty with melted blue cheese, a slice of tomato, a few pieces of crispy bacon, and a few rings of red onion on top. Finally, place the top bun on each burger.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Serve the bacon blue cheese burgers immediately with extra condiments on the side if desired.
