In honor of the Labor Day holiday, Barry said I should post something that was made on the grill. I guess most of you are going to pull out your grill and give a last hurrah for the summer. Although around here, if the heat keeps up, we’ll be having sweaty buns for most of the winter months. Yesterday, it was so hot, spit would have evaporated before it hit the ground. Stupid Global Warming. I blame it on Al Gore. Anyway, I thought I would show you how to make stuffed burgers. It’s more of a method than a recipe, so no recipe will be included at the bottom. You can take this idea and run with it. Run like the wind! Happy Labor Day!
![]() For these burgers, you’ll need ground meat, garlic powder, salt, fresh pepper, bacon bits, feta cheese, and cream cheese. Now, you can use any type of ground meat that you want – beef, veal (too expensive for my blood), turkey, chicken, or just about anything you can think up. As far as the cheeses go, I used these because that’s what I had. You could use ANY type of cheese – bleu cheese, goat cheese (YUM!), cheddar, mozzarella – let your imagination run wild. Try to pair things together. I used bacon, but you could use pepperoni, or anything else you think might pair well with the cheese you’re using. To make a pizza burger, use mozzarella and chopped pepperoni. The burger is your canvas! |
![]() Take your meat and make it into really thin patties. If you’re using 1 pound of meat, a serving for 4 people, then you’ll make 8 thin patties. I was only using ½ pound of meat so I made four. However many burgers you want, double that and you’ll have your thin patty number. Press them down really good so the meat sticks together. No one wants a burger that falls apart on the grill – except maybe your dog. |

Thanks Savannah! I’ll vote soon. 🙂
I am going to try stuffed burgers – soon! I made the roasted green beans the other day and ate over 1/2 by myself. Aden ate several of them – dipped in ketchup of course, but hey, it’s vegetables. Would that Atheno’s Feta happen to be from the BOGO coupon? Hee-hee, I spotted it right away. I got mine just the other day.
Why of course it was! 🙂 I heart BOGO. Enjoy the burgers!
