Double cheeseburger with sauce.

Blue and Black Burgers

These char-grilled burgers have a tasty surprise inside: luscious blue cheese. Brushing the buttery brioche buns with a basil-infused oil before toasting makes this a summer winner.
 
Active Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 29 minutes
Makes: 4 Burgers
 
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
4 brioche hamburger buns, split
1 1/4 pounds ground beef chuck
4 ounces blue cheese, divided into four 1-inch chunks
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper
4 thin slices sweet onion
 
  1. Prepare outdoor grill for direct grilling over medium heat.
  2. In cup, combine oil and basil; brush oil on 1 cut side of each bun. Set buns aside.
  3. Hold one-fourth of ground beef in hand; press chunk of blue cheese into center, then lightly press meat around cheese to enclose completely. Patty will be about 1 1/2 inches thick. Repeat with remaining ground beef and blue cheese. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of patties.
  4. Place patties on hot grill rack; cook 14 to 16 minutes for medium, or until desired doneness is reached, turning over once.
  5. About 2 minutes before burgers are done, add buns, cut sides down, to grill rack. Grill just until toasted. Place burgers on buns and top with onion slices.

Tip: For this recipe, choose a premium blue cheese like Stilton or Gorgonzola.

Chipotle Nacho Burgers

Don't mistake ground chipotle chile pepper for chili powder (which is a blend of spices). Made from smoked jalapeños, chipotle pepper adds a blast of smoky heat to these sizzling burgers. For photo, see page 68.
 
Active Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 33 minutes
Makes: 4 Burgers
 
1 1/4 pounds lean (90%) ground beef
1 1/2 teaspoons ground chipotle chile pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 slices Monterey Jack cheese (1 ounce each)
4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
1 cup mild or medium salsa
 
  1. In large bowl, combine ground beef, chipotle pepper, and salt until blended, but do not overmix. Shape beef mixture into four 3 1/2-inch patties, handling meat as little as possible.
  2. Lightly spray ridged grill pan or 12-inch skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium heat until hot.
  3. Place patties in hot grill pan. For medium, cook 6 minutes, and then turn burgers over to cook 3 minutes. Top each burger with 1 slice cheese; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese melts.
  4. Serve burgers on buns and top with salsa.
