Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ground beef patty -- sirloin is a treat
1 large slice dark russian rye or pumpernickel cut in half
3 Tbsp bleu cheese heaping
1 slice raw onion choice
1 dash(es) salt and pepper
1/4 tsp kitchen bouquet or gravy master to char (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Cook Hamburger in very hot fry pan or on outside grill. I sear mine both sides and then turn heat down, so burgers remain moist. Salt and pepper slightly. I like mine just past pink, cooked through but not over done. If you like char put 1/4 teaspoon of Kitchen Bouquet on burger 2/3 way through cooking, turn a couple of times and move around to coat burger. It provides a great char due to sugar content. An alternative is sprinkle 1/8 teaspoon sugar, just a tad, on burger, flip to both sides. You won't taste the sugar.
  • 2. Lightly toast bread. I use 1 slice cut in half, so the burger fills the slice, and you don't have an overly amount of bread.
  • 3. When Burger is cooked place on 1/2 slice of bread, top with bleu cheese and place in microwave for 30 to 40 seconds to melt cheese.
  • 4. Option: You could put Bleu Cheese on before removing burger from pan and allow to heat. The microwave speeds the process.
  • 5. Compliment with Fries, Chips, Potato Salad or your choice. Enjoy.
  • 6. Note: Many people like Bleu Cheese with their steaks. I prefer a little Butter and Lemon at times, or leave the steak bare.
  • 7. Note: The lightly toasted dark bread makes this sandwich. A Hamburger Bun is a No No. Plain Rye would work.
