salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and quartered
1 teaspoon olive oil
4 hamburger buns
1 large sweet white onion (Vidalia or Walla Walla)
2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese

Steps:

  • Cook the burgers on both sides over the hot grill for about 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium burgers.

  • Lightly toast the buns on the grill.
  • Serve the burgers on toasted buns with grilled red peppers, slices of sweet white onion and crumbled blue cheese.
