Cheese-Stuffed Burgers

A few special touches turn these burgers into a memorable meal. To save time, form the patties up to a day ahead and refrigerate, covered tightly with plastic wrap, until needed; then heat the grill, cook the burgers, and serve.

Prep: 30 minutes
Total: 30 minutes

Ingredients

Serves 8

  • 3 pounds ground beef chuck
  • 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 4 ounces blue cheese (or other soft cheese, such as Brie)
  • Oil, for grates
  • 8 rolls or buns, split
  • 2 cups packed baby spinach
  • 2 beefsteak tomatoes, cut into 8 slices
  • Sauteed mushrooms (optional)
  • Roasted Red-Pepper Sauce

Directions

  1. Heat grill to medium-high. In a large bowl, gently fold together beef, Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Form into 8 equal-size mounds.
  2. Shape cheese into 8 equal-size disks. Press a small well in the center of each beef mound. Place cheese in well; wrap beef around cheese, pinching to seal.
  3. Lightly oil grates. Place burgers on grill; cover. Cook until grill marks are visible on first side, 4 to 6 minutes. Turn burgers with a spatula; cook until grill marks are visible on other side and meat is just slightly pink in the middle, 4 to 6 minutes more for medium-rare.
  4. To serve, layer bottom roll halves with spinach, burgers, tomato, and mushrooms, if using, dividing evenly. Spread top roll half with roasted red-pepper sauce, as desired.
