Burgers are one of our spring and summertime staples, but I have to admit that we usually opt for the pre-made burgers rather than take the time to make our own. Yes, I know they are more expensive, but in this case, convenience almost always wins out over cost.
Not anymore!
Not only are these flavor-packed bacon & blue cheese burgers WAY tastier than any of the pre-made varieties, they are a snap to make! We whipped up 12 patties in just a few minutes (at a fraction of the cost of the pre made burgers!) To make these as part of a freezer cooking day, simply individually wrap the raw burgers in plastic wrap or freezer paper, and then into a ziploc freezer bag–no pre-cooking required! Making it ahead of time is not necessary, though, as they are equally delicious thrown straight on the grill!

Step 1: Chop bacon; set aside. Chop onions and set aside.
Step 2: Mince garlic; set aside.
Step 3: In large bowl, mash together ground beef, blue cheese, bacon, Worcestershire sauce, onion, garlic, and steak seasoning until well blended.
Step 4: Form ground beef mixture into 12 patties place on parchment paper covered cookie sheet. Flash freeze for 20 minutes.
Step 5: Wrap each patty individually with freezer paper or saran wrap. Divide patties into two gallon size freezer bags (be sure to label bags first!) Freeze until needed.
Step 6: To cook, grill frozen patties to desired doneness level. Alternate directions: Pan fry frozen patties for 4-5 minutes per side until done.
Step 7: Serve on Hamburger buns with lettuce, tomato, onion, or any other favorite burger fixings!

Yes yes!! This is my all time favorite burger! My husband usually likes his with cheddar but I love the blue cheese!
These look amazing and I’m making them immediately and freezing so I have this yumminess on hand anytime I want a blue cheese burger.
I love this! We’ve been forming our own burger patties for years. We even found a hamburger press for about $3 at Wegmans to make uniform patties. We make about 4 burgers per pound and we stock up on ground beef when it’s on sale for 1,99/pound. That’s only 50 cents per burger!
