Memorial Day is right around the corner, and that means summer is on its way. And with summer comes grilling out and lots of my favorite foods, like these bacon blue cheese burgers. After our local Memorial Day celebrations, we always have friends and family back to our home for a barbecue. We grill, play games, and spend time together, while enjoying the good weather and all of our favorite summer recipes.
I absolutely love these Bacon Blue Cheese Burgers. I generally do not like blue cheese, but for whatever reason the combination of flavors on a burger are absolutely scrumptious.
When shopping for the ingredients to make these burgers, I ran across blue cheese slices. I was so excited, I have never seen those before. I would just caution, they sound a whole lot better than they actually work. Nice layers of paper separate the slices, but once you try to take them out, in true blue cheese form, they completely fell apart. It is perfectly okay to set them on the burgers in pieces, they will still melt quite nicely.
Try these burgers with our grilled corn and red skinned potato salad and finish it all off with our red, white and blue trifle for the picture perfect celebratory barbecue.

- Place all ingredients (except the blue cheese and bacon) in a large bowl and mix together well. It is best to use your hands to mix the burger mixture together
- Divide into 6 equal parts and form patties. I put the burger mix into an english muffin ring, it made perfect, uniform burger patties (we are working on a bun recipe that will use the rings to form the buns)
- You can either cook these on the grill, or in the oven on the low broil setting. I made them both ways and they came out perfect both ways.
- Cook until you reach your desired temperature
- Top each with a slice of bacon and a slice of blue cheese. Cook until melted
- Serve on a fresh roll with the toppings of your choice.
