1/2 cup bleu cheese crumbles (recommended: Treasure Cave)

thanks sandra these are great!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

these were so incredibly delicious. i shared the recipe with several people. my husband and i were both a little leery... since neither of us are wild about bleu cheese. however we gave it a shot and wow is all i can say. we did not use the bacon bits by the way. we grilled these using our indoor foreman grill and it worked wonderfully. the bleu cheese bits melted perfectly and that butter spread? oh my goodness. i hate that there was so much leftover though, looking for a way to use the rest before it goes bad. we were worried about our kids' reactions too (ages 2 and 6) but my son told me they were the best burgers he's ever had and asked for a second one! that does not happen often, if ever at all. my husband also added provolone cheese on his. sandra your recipes always look devine and i'm thrilled to have finally made one of them at home. going to make these again next week before the container of bleu cheese goes bad. total hit on this one folks!

Every time I make these burgers for family and friends they love them. Everyone asks for the recipe and any leftovers are... not wasted, we just have them later in the week. Be sure to try this recipe even if you are not a big blue cheese fan.Read more
