Equipment
- 1 grill
Ingredients
Burgers:
- 1 lb. Ground Beef
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 Tsp Black Pepper
- 1/2 cup Crumbled Blue Cheese
Trimmings:
- 1 Med–size Onion Sliced Thinly
- A Splash or Two of Olive Oil for Brushing
- Salt to Taste
To Serve:
- 4 Hamburger Buns Cut Open
- 1 cup Baby Spinach Leaves
Instructions
- Get your grill ready to go at a medium heat – no need to preheat because you will be cooking the meat uncovered. This would apply to a charcoal grill as well.
- Mix the meat, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper in a large bowl.
- Divide the mix into 8 balls. Pat them out until they are nice and thin: 4ʺ in diameter. Half of these are tops, the other half tails.
- Put 1 Tbsp of cheese on 4 of the patties. Toss a coin to see which side will get it, then match it with its mate and pinch the edges to seal it.
- Brush onion rings with oil and scatter salt on them.
- Grill burgers and onions on an oiled rack, directly over med–high heat. Grill until done: internal temp of 160°– 165°F (5 min).
- Brush the cut faces of the buns with oil and toast them in the last few moments of grilling the meat.
- Serve on hamburger buns with the onion, spinach, and any remaining cheese.
