Recipe: Red, White & Bleu Burger

Hope everyone is having an enjoyable holiday weekend. In the patriotic spirit of the season, the Brewski Brothers would like to share their own very special recipe...

Red, White & Bleu Burger

2 pounds ground top sirloin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon rosemary
1/2 cup crumbled bleu cheese
1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
1 cup sliced red onions
Frank's Red Hot Sauce
OPTIONAL: 4 strips smoked bacon, sliced tomato

Preheat grill and shape the ground sirloin meat into four large patties. Lightly dust each side of patties with salt and pepper mixture. Place the patties on the cook for 5 to 6 minutes before flipping sides. Mix the rosemary into the bleu cheese. Next, put 2-3 tablespoons of crumbled bleu cheese in the center of each patty, then cook for another 5 to 6 minutes (for medium burgers, longer if desired.) Toast the buns (or Kaiser rolls) on the grill. Keep an eye on them or use a warming rack if you have one. Place bottom buns on a plate and top with the shredded romaine lettuce. Place burgers on the lettuce (with 2 strips of bacon and sliced tomato if desired) and garnish with red onion slices. Then, top off with a nice dousing of Frank's Red Hot Sauce and place top buns on sauce. Enjoy!

Serve with Beer Chips and a Dogfish Head Raison D’Etre.
