Dad's Favorite Detroit-Style Roquefort Burgers

By: Aunt Julie 
"Fifty years ago, my Dad used to have this burger at lunch with his business clients in a nice restaurant in Detroit, Michigan. They all raved about them all the time. I don't remember the name of the restaurant, and chances are it is long gone... but the burger is still YUM!"

Original Recipe Yield 4 sandwiches
 

Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Roquefort or other blue cheese, crumbled
  •  
  • 4 kaiser rolls, split and heated
  • 4 slices onion, or to taste
  • 4 lettuce leaves
  • 4 slices tomato

Directions

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  2. Mix together the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, and salt and pepper in a bowl, and divide the mixture into 4 portions. Make each portion into a ball, and form a pocket in each ball. Stuff the balls with about 1/4 cup crumbled Roquefort cheese, and gently pat and flatten each ball into a bun-sized burger.
  3. Grill the burgers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the middle, the cheese is melted, and the burgers show nice grill marks, 7 to 8 minutes per side.
  4. Serve burgers in heated kaiser rolls, with sliced onion, lettuce, and tomato on the side.
