Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patties

    Form the ground beef into two equal patties, approximately 1/3 lb each. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness.

  3. 3

    Make the Blue Cheese Sauce

    In a small saucepan, combine heavy cream and blue cheese over medium heat. Stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Add garlic powder and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burgers

    Place the cooked burger patties on the toasted buns, top with the blue cheese sauce, and sprinkle with additional blue cheese crumbles if desired.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately with your choice of sides.
