The Grilling is nearly upon us.

In honor of Nation Meat Week, and as a sort of break from the political coverage I will try to post some recipes as we get closer to the infamous "Grilling of the Meats". So first up: The Blue Cheese Bacon Burger


A good solid classic, which is easily adaptable to grilling. Depending on the cut of meat used to make the burger the cheese works as a nice contrast. I would probably pair this with a nice hard roll instead of a hamburger bun. Possibly an onion roll. You might be thinking, "Why a harder roll?", well simply put if grilled correctly a burger should be fairly juicy when you bite into it. That moisture absolutely obliterates most standard buns. So something a bit sturdier will allow you to stack up the burger, some veggies and condiments, of your choice, with out making a huge mess.
