Gorgonzola Stuffed Burgers



Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 2 0z. Gorgonzola cheese
  • 1/2 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. of oregano
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • a premium pepper relish for topping
  1. Combine the beef with the chopped onion, oregano and salt and pepper and mix well. Form the mixture into 4 equal size balls and then flatten into patties. Cut the Gorgonzola cheese into 4 cubes and place one cube in the center of each patty, then from the patties into balls again with the cheese in the center,
  2. Now flatten the balls out again into patties and make sure the cheese in fully covered so it won't leak out during cooking. Broil/Grill/Fry each burger 4 - 5 minutes on each side or until the meat is fully cooked.
  3. Serve on toasted buns with lots of pepper relish.

I made this for my sister and her friend when they came over for a beautiful day to go to the reservation across from Ramapo College. One time my roommate Matt and I tried making them with turkey, they were dry. I left one without gorgonzola cheese because my sister's friend is picky. I put an onion slice to differentiate the burger without the cheese. I grated the onion because I do not know how to chop finely. I left out the pepper relish because I am poor and did not want to buy it. They were very very good!
