Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground sirloin
  • 1 pound ground chuck
  • 6 tablespoons gorgonzola cheese
  • 1 tablespoon hamburger seasoning or more to taste
  • 1 large red onion
  • 12 slices cooked bacon
  • 6 romaine lettuce leafs cut in half
  • 6 hamburger buns toasted

Instructions

  • Peel then cut the red onion into six thick slices, place on to a medium-high grill until charred and softened. Be careful flipping!
  • Combine the ground sirloin and chuck, then form 6 patties. Place about a tablespoon of Gorgonzola in the center of each burger and fold the outer edges over the center to keep the cheese inside. Make a small dimple in the center then sprinkle the burgers with seasoning on both sides and place them on the hot grill and cook until desired doneness {about 3-4 minutes a side}. Remove and let rest for 3-5 minutes
  • Toast buns on the grill then top with the burger, charred onion rings, bacon and lettuce, or any other toppings to suit your fancy.
