Steps:
- Coarsely chop enough fresh basil leaves to make 1/2 cup.
- Combine the chopped basil with the mayonnaise, olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic, stirring until smooth. Season with kosher salt to taste, then refrigerate until ready to use.
- In a small saucepan, bring the blueberries and other barbecue sauceingredients to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Keep warm until ready to use.
- Lightly oil the grates of a gas grill and preheat to 450 degrees.
- Form the ground beef into 4 equal patties, being careful not to overly pack the meat together. Season both sides liberally with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Cook the burgers over direct heat for 6 minutes, watching carefully for any flare ups.
- Flip the burgers and cook for 4 more minutes on the other side, or until done.
- Spread basil aioli on the cut side of each bun, both top and bottom pieces.
- Next, pile arugula on the bottom bun and top with a grilled burger.
- Spread a tablespoon or two of the blueberry barbecue sauce on the burger.
- Top with blue cheese crumbles, bacon, and the top bun. Serve immediately.
