Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons butter cut in small pieces
  • 1/3 cup hot sauce
  • 1/2 cup finely crumbled blue cheese
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 lbs 85% lean ground beef or 2 lbs ground buffalo meat
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped onion
  • 6 hamburger buns split

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter and whisk in the hot sauce.
  2. Mix the blue cheese and garlic in a small bowl.
  3. Using your hands, gently mix the ground beef, celery seed, onion and 1/4 cup hot sauce mixture in a medium bowl until blended. Form into 12 patties, using a light touch; the patties should be about 4 1/2 inches in diameter and no more than 1/2 inch thick.
  4. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the cheese-garlic mixture in the center of 6 patties, then top with remaining patties and press together, sealing edges.
  5. Cover and refrigerate until ready to grill. (Even if you aren't making these ahead of time, I think they hold together better after a little chill time).
  6. Heat grill to medium and oil grate.
  7. Grill burgers about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to taste. Brush with the remaining hot sauce mixture during last 2 minutes of cooking. Toast buns if you like.
