Worcestershire sauce * Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper * 4 oz. crumbled creamy blue cheese **[[Red Wine Pan Sauce]]** {{section>Red Wine Pan Sauce#Ingredients&noheader&nofooter&noeditbutton}} ====== Directions ====== - Gently break the meat into large pieces in a large bowl. Add the Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper and gently mix with your hands; avoid overworking. - Wet your hands and shape the meat into 8 equal 1/2-inch-thick patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of 4 of the patties to hold the cheese. Divide the blue cheese into 4 equal portions, shape into disks, and set a disk in each of the 4 indentations. Top the cheese with the remaining patties and gently but firmly seal the edges to completely encase the cheese. Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 20 minutes and up to 4 hours. - Prepare a hot charcoal or gas grill fire. Grill the burgers, covered with vents open, until nicely marked and cooked to your liking (2 minutes per side for rare, 3 minutes per side for medium rare, 4 minutes per side for medium). Don't press on the burgers while they're cooking—you want to keep the juices and cheese inside the burger, not on your grill. - Serve with the Red Wine Pan Sauce. **[[Red Wine Pan Sauce | Sauce]]** {{section>Red Wine Pan Sauce#Directions&noheader&nofooter&noeditbutton}} ====== Notes ====== /* Nutrition block - remove the slash-asterisk and asterisk-slash from just above and below the following block */ /* ====== Nutrition ====== |Calories (kcal): |Fat Calories (kcal): |Cholesterol (mg): |[[recipes:notes:nutrition guidelines |(Guide)]] | |Fat (g): |Saturated Fat (g): |Mono Fat (g): |Poly Fat (g): | |Protein (g): |Carbohydrates (g): |Sodium (mg): |Fiber (g): | */ {{tag>Recipes Grilling-BBQ FineCooking}} /* Recipe Tags - Copy and paste tags from the list below to the tag list in the above line, replacing the "TagsNeeded" tag and separated by spaces. */ /* ---Recipe Types--- Appetizer Appetizer/Cold Appetizer/Hot Beverage Beverage/Cocktail Beverage/Liquor-Mixer Bread Bread/Biscuit-Roll Bread/Muffin Bread/Quickbread Bread/Yeast Breakfast Casserole Canning-Freezing Condiment Dessert Dessert/Bar-Brownie Dessert/Cake Dessert/Cake/Frosting Dessert/Candy-Chocolate Dessert/Crisp-Buckle Dessert/Cookie Dessert/Custard-Curd Dessert/IceCream-Ice Dessert/Pie Dessert/Pie/Crust Dessert/Topping Dip-Spread Entertaining Fondue Grilling-BBQ FineCooking Grilling-BBQ/BBQSauce Holiday Ingredient Ingredient/Seasoning-Rub Ingredient/Brine-Marinade Kid-Friendly MainDish MainDish/Beef MainDish/Poultry MainDish/Pork MainDish/Seafood MainDish/Vegetarian Pasta-Rice Pizza Roast Salad Salad/Dressing Sandwich Sauce-Gravy Sausage-Pate Side Side/Starch Side/Vegetable Snack Soup Soup/Stock-Broth Stew-Braise Stew-Braise/SlowCooker-Crockpot Stir-Fry Vegetarian ---Recipe Cuisines--- American American/Cajun-Creole American/Southern American/TexMex Asian Asian/Chinese Asian/Indian Asian/Japanese Asian/Korean Asian/Thai Asian/Vietnamese European European/English European/French European/Greek European/Polish European/Italian European/Spanish Latin Latin/Brazilian Latin/Mexican MiddleEastern ---Recipe Sources--- AmericasTestKitchen AmericasTestKitchen/CooksCountry AmericasTestKitchen/CooksIllustrated BonAppetit Chowhound FineCooking FoodWine GoodEats Gourmet MilkStreet LMaidment TMaidment DMarcos JMarcos KMarcos JPhalen DPendergast ---Recipe Ratings--- 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1★ No★ ---Recipe Alerts--- RecipeNeeded RecipeIncomplete RecipeWrong RecipeFails TagsNeeded */ ~~DISCUSSION~~
