BLUE MOON BURGERS
mmmmmmmmm Comfort food. We love the Blue Moon Burgers at a local diner. But after finding a deep-fried fly in my french fries, I refuse to go back!! We prefer our burger patties with no "fillers," just the beef and the toppings.

OPEN-FACE BLUE MOON BURGERS WITH 'SHROOMS
Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the ground sirloin, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped shallot. Mix thoroughly. Score the meat with your hand, marking 4 equal portions. Form each portion into a large 1-inch-thick patty. Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the patties liberally with some salt and pepper and then drizzle the patties with a little EVOO and place in the hot skillet. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until the patties are firm to the touch and cooked through.
- Preheat the broiler.
- While the burgers are cooking, preheat a second large skillet over medium-high heat with the 2 tablespoons of EVOO, twice around the pan, and the butter. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and spread them out in an even layer, resisting the temptation to stir for a few minutes to let the mushrooms start to brown. Once brown, go ahead and stir, continuing to cook for 2 minutes, then add the onions and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring every now and then, for about 3 minutes, or until the onions start to look tender. Add the chicken stock, bring it up to a bubble, and simmer for about 2 minutes. Add the parsley and stir to combine; taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
- While the burgers and the mushrooms are working, toast the bread slices under the broiler until they are golden on both sides.
- Coarsely chop the basil and arugula.
- Place a piece of toast on each serving plate. Top each piece of toast with 1 slice of red tomato and 1 slice of yellow tomato and season the tomatoes with a little salt and pepper. Sprinkle the tomatoes with the arugula-basil mixture and put a cooked burger on top of that. Add the blue cheese crumbles of the mushrooms, stir to combine, and top each burger with the mushroom-blue mixture. Grab a fork and a knife and dig in.

The tangy cream cheese - blue cheese mixture is a perfect compliment to the smoky bacon that tops this burger.

Steps:
- 1. Mix softened cream cheese and blue cheese together, beating or mashing together with a fork, until blended. Set aside to give the flavors time to meld.
- 2. Season ground beef with salt and pepper or your choice of seasonings, form into 4 patties. Fry the slices of bacon until crisp, drain (I often fry my bacon on the grill with my hamburger patties). Grill the burgers until done. Spread mayo onto the toasted buns.
- 3. Just before removing the patties from the grill, top each patty with approximately 1/4 of the cream/blue cheese mixture, then place a slice of monterey jack cheese over the cheese mixture. As soon as the jack cheese starts to become gooey, remove the patties from the grill and place onto the buns. Top with bacon slices, lettuce, onions and tomatoes.
- 4. DO NOT USE KETCHUP! Ketchup and blue cheese DO NOT go together!
