Ingredients:
1 lb organic ground sirloin
2 natural Italian sausages, removed from casing
2 large cloves garlic, chopped
3 large shallots, chopped (or substitute 1/2 medium onion)
1/4 cup chili sauce
2 Tbsp ketchup
2 dashes of soy sauce
1/4 tsp Kosher salt
1/3 to 1/4 of a cup of Bleu cheese crumbles
What to do:
Mix all of the above ingredients together in a large bowl, except for the bleu
cheese. Divide meat mixture up into 6 balls. Take one ball of meat mixture, rip
off about 1/3 of it and set aside. Form a square patty with the remaining 2/3
of the meat mixture, patting to about 1/2 inch thick. Place about 1 Tbsp bleu
cheese in the center of the patty. Top with the remaining 1/3 of the meat mixture,
closing the seams of the meat, so that the cheese does not escape. Repeat the
same process for all of the beef patties. Grill over medium heat to desired doneness.
Spread with ketchup and cook 2 minutes longer.
These burgers are so good, you won’t even need condiments, and
definitely not a bun! Serve with your favorite vegetables and/or salad!
