Burger Patty

Toppings

Method

Preparing the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Mixing Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, blackening spice, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.

  2. 2

    Forming the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form into patties, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.

Cooking the Burger

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Skillet

    Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil if using a skillet to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Cooking the Patties

    Place the patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

  3. 5

    Adding Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, add blue cheese on top of each patty and cover with a lid to allow the cheese to melt.

Preparing the Toppings

  1. 6

    Cooking the Bacon

    In a separate skillet, cook the bacon strips over medium heat until crispy. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.

  2. 7

    Slicing the Vegetables

    While the bacon is cooking, wash and slice the tomato and onion. Rinse the lettuce and pat dry.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 8

    Building the Burger

    On the bottom half of each burger bun, layer the lettuce, cooked burger patty with melted blue cheese, bacon strips, tomato slices, and onion slices.

  2. 9

    Finishing Touch

    Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately with your choice of sides.
