Blue Sriracha Burger
No more burger burger night. This Blue Sriracha Burger gives maximum flavor with minimum effort.
- 2-3 lb of ground beef
- 5 T McCormick Hamburger Seasoning (or mix up salt, pepper, crushed chili pepper, dehydrated onion, dehydrated garlic and sugar)
- 6 Hamburger buns
- 6 slices of cheese of choice (white cheddar, Monterey jack works well or good old American)
- 2 T butter (softened) (optional)
- 6 slices bacon , cooked (optional but recommended) and cut in half.
- ½ C blue cheese dressing
- 6 T sriracha sauce
Mix beef and seasonings. Form into patties.
Cook burgers on grill until done to your liking. I like to go medium so it takes approximately 10 minutes, turning once and top with cheese slice.
Meanwhile, spread a bit of butter on each bun and toss on the grill over indirect heat to avoid scorching. Leave on there about 3 minutes, just until warmed and beautiful grill marks are achieved.
In a small bowl combine blue cheese dressing and sriracha.
Top the bottom of each bun with 2 halves of bacon, top with cheeseburger. Top the burger with sriracha sauce, I use about 1 T for each burger. Adjust to your liking. Pairs wonderfully with sweet potato fries.
