Wisconsin Stuffed Burger

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs. Eagle Ridge 85/15 Pure Ground Beef, RFS Item 50106
• 1/4 c. dry bread crumbs
• 1 egg
• 6 slices tomato
• 6 lettuce leaves
• 3/4 c. Cobblestone Market Crumbled Bleu Cheese, RFS Item 70030
• 6 hamburger buns, sliced

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine beef, bread crumbs and eggs; mix well, but lightly.
2. Divide mixture into 12 balls; flatten each on waxed paper to 4 inches across. Place 1 tablespoon cheese on each of 6 patties. Top with remaining patties, carefully pressing the edges to seal.
3. Grill patties 4 inches from the hot coals, turning only once for 6 to 9 minutes on each side, or until no longer pink. To keep cheese between patties as it melts, do not flatten burgers with spatula while grilling.
4. Place burgers on buns and top with tomato and lettuce.

*Your possibilities are endless! Stuff your burgers with Cobblestone Market Co-Jack or Swiss, San Pablo Pepper Jack, Trifoglio Pizza Blend or Villa Frizzoni Mozzarella.
