Blue cheese burgers aren’t just basic hamburgers — they’re a real treat, and the wise cook will make up a dozen or so for the freezer. If you like blue cheese, you’ll never forget these burgers.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds lean ground beef
- ½ cup minced fresh chives
- 4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- ¼ teaspoon hot pepper sauce

Directions
Step 1
Mix ground beef, chives, blue cheese, salt, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, mustard, and hot pepper sauce together in a large bowl until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Step 2
When ready to cook, preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Step 3
Remove beef mixture from the refrigerator; form into 12 patties.

My husband and I loved these burgers! We usually just serve plain burgers with melted blue cheese on top. The blue cheese flavor actually in the burgers was terrific! We still melted a little cheese to top the burgers! Great recipe even though my kids didn’t appreciate it!
-
Everyone loved these. I froze some for a later date. They really are excellent. Thanks!!
-
My husband and I loved these burgers. Really good with sliced avocado and extra blue cheese on top!The blue cheese was too strong for the little ones.Defiantly will make again.
-
I LOVE blue cheese, so I loved this recipe. I only used 1 pd. of ground beef, but used the same amount of blue cheese. I just cut back on the other ingredients because they were too hard to cut into thirds. I will definitely make again!
-
I thought the blue cheese burgers were fantastic! Loaded with flavor and easy to make. I’m not really a big fan of blue cheese but I thought I’d give it a try and they were great!
-
I forgot to let the mixture set for 3 hours as recommended and the burgers still turned out super. Such a different taste! Of course my kids turned up their nose at blue cheese, but it’s great for us adults! Thanks Poni!
-
These burgers are so delectable! I used turkey meat instead and served them with carmalized onions and sauteed mushrooms – magnificent. 5 stars from the whole family!
-
These are very tasty. But to be honest, it wasn’t drastically different than any other burger you would make at home if you are adding spices. The blue cheese provided a nice change. I also put some blue cheese on top at the end and let it melt.
-
These were amazing!
I made them one night for my family, and then for the next big barbeque bash the next night! Everyone raved…..and even my five year old loved them!
The blue cheese taste isn’t overpowering, even with the extra i tossed in…it just adds a yummy kick! -
Excellent!! Used only two pounds of lean ground beef. Didn’t have fresh chives so used 1/4 cup of dried. Also added a little more hot sauce and worcestershire to spice it up. If you love blue cheese this recipe is for you!
-
Thought they were great.Next time will add a lttle more blue cheese,and just a little more of all the other stuff.Really good couldn’t even tell it was blue cheese,guests were surprised!
-
I cut down the burger to 2 pounds and doubled the spices. I had them for a dinner party and they were a big hit. Will make again.
-
This is a great recipe! We love Blue Cheese anyways, and this hamburger was delicious! Even my 3 year old liked it!
-
My husband prepared this as a main course meat dish, no buns. He used ground Caribou meat which is very lean. It was absolutely awesome! The combination of game meat and blue cheese made for an elegant gourmet presentation. A definite keeper!
-
If you like Blue Cheese, you’ll love these. Very easy to prepare and they tasted like something from a restaurant!
-
I made these for my family and my brother. All the adults LOVED it! Very tasty! The kids however, weren’t too wild about it. Definately a “grown-up” recipe!
-
My boyfriend and I love blue cheese, and other than the recipe stating to make these at least 2 hours before cooking, it’s a easy and great recipe. Also, we don’t always let them sit for 2 hours, and just mix the stuff up and cook them and they are still great.
-
It doesn’t taste any better than my regular cheeseburger. We all love blue cheese; however, it just doesn’t quite go along with the burger.
-
Definitely the best burgers I’ve ever had! Very easy to make and the flavor is out of this world. My boyfriend has liked every recipe I’ve tried so far but this one is by far his favorite.
-
These are some of the best burgers I’ve eaten. Everyone I made them for loved them!
-
I do not like blue cheese even a little, however, these are FANTASTIC! No more boring burgers in this house again! The flavor is just perfect, I didn’t like the smell of the blue cheese while I mixed it in, and did it quick so nobody would see, and everybody loved them except my daughter,she LIKED these the best of all beef burgers, she normally eats veggie burgers only!
-
My family and I love blue cheese and we loved this recipe. A nice change from the ordinary.
-
It was very good. The blue cheese gives it a nice different taste. I suggest trying it.
-
I served these at a party and everyone loved them.
-
This recipe was very easy. My husband loves blue cheese and he really like these burgers. I just didn’t have the time to let the meat sit with the cheese in the fridge but they still turned out really good. My kids thought they were pretty good also.
-
Great way to spice up hamburgers! I made these last night, scaled the recipe down to serve 4 and used scallions (no chives on hand)and they came out really good. Next time, though, I would add more of the spices to give a little extra flavor.
-
Oh sooooo good. I really wanted this recipe for myself, as my husband doesn’t like cheese on or in his burger and my kids don’t like blue cheese. So, they ate their burgers with just the spices and I had my hubby put a slice of blue cheese on the inside of my burger. The cheese just oozed out when I took that first delicious bite! Thanks!
-
This is my favorite recipe for burgers ever!!
they are so flavorful and moist. When I make them, everyone in my family wants one. They are really great. The fresh chives really do the trick. -
These were the most incredibly juicy, tasty, delicious burgers I have ever tasted. Made them exactly as recipe indicated. The best!
-
I personally hate blue cheese, but I made these as a treat for my fiance’ who loves it. He said this recipe was fantastic! I’ll just have to take his word for it.
-
There is no doubt that these burgers are MUCH better than regular ones, but I’ve even added twice the amount of blue cheese, and still can’t taste the blue cheese flavor. All your guests and family, will appreciate the extra special ingredients in these burgers! Wow – YES! Do it!
-
Oh so good!! I doubled the amount of blue cheese and sauces for a little extra umph- perfect!
Served it for a crowd and everyone approved. -
This is the best burger recipe ever! I made it with gorgonzola cheese. Yum My new favorite
-
I loved these burgers! It’s so nice to know that you can still make a great tasty burger indoors (used a conventional oven). Would definitely make again…
-
I am not sure if there is an easier way to make this, perhaps I am not making my patties thick enough because the blue cheese always oozes all over. However, this is a recipe worth perfecting, very yummy.
-
Yum.
-
My boyfriend and I were both very skeptical about these since they had blue cheese in them, but they were SOOOOOO wonderful! They were just like something we would’ve gotten from TGI Friday’s, or Ruby Tuesday’s, or another popular restaurant! We’ll definitely have these again!
-
Very Good recipe, I made it as stated and the flavor of the blue cheese was perfect. Definately a great change from the ordinary burger. Thanks for sharing.
-
I love blue cheese and I love burgers! So I am in luck! Great combo of flavors! I used extra blue cheese and extra amounts of the sauces called for and put them on the outdoor grill! I will make these again! I make extras so I can heat them up for lunch during the week!
-
We raise our own beef and have plenty of hamberger so we are allways looking for new ways to prepare it. This is by far the BEST! I shape them into large patties and eat them like a steak. The only thing I add is beef gravy on top.
-
Really great! Use more Blue Cheese than the ratio recommended & it is great. Also, I used my G.Foreman grill and it is easy!
-
This recipe is great! I ended up doubling the blue cheese and everyone loved it!
-
Every time I make these burgers, people clamor for more. I’ve given this recipe out more times than I can count. Great recipe!
-
This one is great for BBQ
-
These burgers were absolutely delicious. I didn’t use as much chives as the recipe called for, because I wasn’t sure the kids would like the flavor. I also didn’t them them set like the recipe said. I really like them and can’t wait to make them again. Thanks
-
My heart grows warm as I think of how good these burgers were. I will make this again and again.
-
Very good!!! I used cheddar because I was out of blue cheese and they still came out GREAT. Even good cold the next day. YUM!
-
EXCELLENT RECIPE!!! I added more hot pepper sauce, and used a few “squeezes” of Dijon mustard instead of the dry……they were a huge hit at our house!!!! Will definately make these again!!!
-
These patties are much better than plain ol’ burgers. But, I would definitely add a lot more cheese and throw in some extra chives and wor. sauce for more flavor. Will make again and experiment more.
-
These are really some of the best burgers we’ve had. delicious!
-
Grilled these last night as was so pleased! Next time I will add about 1/4-1/2 more of the cheese/sauce/spices and give them the full 4 hours of marinating time. Wonderful burgers!!!
-
delicious!!!!
-
Wouldn’t make them too often but they were good and different.
-
These ARE the best burgers! I do add larger quantities of seasonings listed (esp. blue cheese), but they are excellent! We ate them all summer long. I usually make a large batch, let them sit in the fridge for a few hours and then freeze the extra patties for next time – we love these!
-
Good flavor, but not enough blue cheese (and I doubled it).
-
These were good, but not outstanding. I expected more from them, after the high reviews.
-
These were simply awesome!
-
Very good recipe just as is. The blue cheese flavor is profound (I can not imagine adding more). Probably not a kid friendly recipe but a must try for more developed taste buds! Try this with ground turkey—it is great!
-
They were very tasty, however make sureyou like blue cheese. Very very strong flavor. My fiance’ LOVES blue cheese and ate every bite.
Next time I will keep the recipes all the same, but maybe add a different cheese. Very good recipe!! Thanks! -
I made this because of its high rating and boy, am I glad I did! Even though I am not a huge fan of Bleu Cheese, I love these burgers. Thanks for the recipe!
-
We love this recipe at our house and make it over and over and over again! One of my kids is a fairly picky eater and she loves them, she calls them “Green Things Hamburgers” because of the chives! A new family favorite, and I don’t generally even like bleu cheese! We also normally cut the beef down to 2 lbs instead of 3.
-
Definitely not one of the better recipes that I have tried on here. No one in our family cared for them. We love blue cheese melted on burgers but having it inside the burger was just not the taste that we were looking for plus they were entirely way too salty. This will not be a keeper for the recipe book…sorry 🙁
-
Great recipe. Tasted even better then it sounded. I would suggest changing the hot sauce to the new Tosbasco Chipotle sauce. It is amazing. Also next time I will try blending the gound beef half and half with ground pork! P.S. use less salt as the cheese is generally salty on its own.
-
Of course, I love blue cheese so why not? I did do slight modifying…1 lb lean ground beef with 1 lb ground turkey. I used minced green onions as I didn’t have chives (1/3 C) but mainly stuck with the rest of the recipe. I doubled the blue cheese and dared to serve some to a few teenagers as well. These were a hit even though I used a pre-made frozen batch. Not a burger left! This is now the way I prepare burgers when I have the blue cheese on hand. Quite a simple and easy way to have a less boring burger. Thanks! An additional note – I added 1/4 C chopped Jalepenos another time and if you like things with a kick, this is the way to go. Not the pickled jalepenos. Either mince a fresh one or buy the small can without vinegar Yum!
-
I added extra blue cheese and a bit more of the spice/sauce mixture, and these were a HUGE hit with the family. even the leftovers were gone by the next evening.
-
This recipe is awesome. I made couple of changes by making a sauce with the wet ingredients and the dry seasonings, then mixing it in with the burger meat. This ensures better coverage. Then add the crumbled blue cheese and form into patties. Also, I kicked it up by doubling the hot sauce; personal preference.
-
Great flavor nice change from your regular burger. I used blue cheese in one batch and peppercorn feta in another. Everyone liked this.
-
I must admit I was skeptical, but they were absolutely wonderful! We really didn’t find the blue cheese to overpower, but it was a mild, pleasant infusion! These are really good! I did not alter the recipe at all, and used finely ground blue cheese. I’m a believer!! I will make up some extra’s next time!
-
I’m not a big hamburger fan, but these burgers were delicious!!! My fiance would have eaten every single one if he could. We will be making this recipe over and over.
-
Incredibly tasty. We were hesitant to try this recipe because none of us really like blue cheese, but we wanted a new burger recipe, so we tried it, and we are so glad we did. The only change we made was that we only used two pounds of hamburger (we used the specified amounts of all other ingredients). We will definitely be making these again.
-
Excellent recipe…just make sure you don’t use more than it calls for of blue cheese, or else you will have over-kill.
-
I am giving this recipe 4 stars but not because of the recipe. I could not find blue cheese at the grocery store so I used blue cheese salad dressing instead. I do not think the results would be the same.
In addition, I added some garlic. Personally, my husband rated the burger a 4.8/5, and my 16 month old son really liked the meat with ketchup too. I will use this recipe again. -
THIS WAS SUPERB…MADE IT FOR FATHERS DAY AND MY DAD SWORE IT WAS THE BEST BURGER HE EVER ATE.MADE IT EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED AND I EVEN BOUGHT THE GOOD MAYTAG BLEU CHEESE.IF YOU LIKE BLEU CHEESE YOU’LL LOVE IT!!!
-
This recipe was great. I omitted the hot sauce and the flavor was still great. I will definately make these burgers again!
-
Me and my family enjoyed this recipe. The taste of bleu cheese is definately there. I’d make it again.
-
These burgers are great. Will make again and again. Thanks for the recipe.
-
this hamburger is the greatest
-
Great way to glam up a casual bbq. Thanks for the recipe!
-
Pretty good!
-
I used gorgonzola cheese instead of blue cheese. Wow what a hamburger!! Awesome!!
-
This was a hit at my small bbq. I used pre-ground chuck, and it was intentionally not the super-lean ground beef. I bought the beef & blue cheese at trader joe’s.
the one thing i had to monitor was the heat of the grill — too well done and the cheese would melt (but not like how cheddar melts on top of a burger….) into nothingness.
even the usual bbq chicken eaters went for the beef on this one — thumbs up!
-
We’ve made these several times now. We’ve made it exactly, but usually substitute chopped onion for the chives, increase the Worchestershire (to 1 tablespoon per pound of beef) and omit the salt. When we don’t want to bother with the grill, these work well cooked in the broiler, too. Thanks for the recipe!
-
My husband loves blue cheese as much as I dislike it. I wan’t looking forward to this (for me) but surprisingly I really enjoyed it, too. Our guests asked for the recipe before they were done with dinner.
-
maybe i didn’t use enough blue cheese, but was very faint as far as flavor goes and they were a little dry. Not bad, but not great.
-
These are great burgers. We added a little extra blu cheese on top at the end.
-
Yum! Great change to the boring burger. My family loved it. I’ll be making this again.
-
Very Good. I used prepared mustard instead of dry and green onions instead of chives. I will make these again!
-
Tasty! I really enjoyed the blue cheese (put extra on top) and my picky eaters didn’t notice that theirs contained anything different! Win, win!
-
Excellent burgers! Made these for just me and the hubby. Hubby put extra blue cheese on top and I put some cheddar on top. Very Very Tasty!! 🙂
-
These were delicious! We used Feta instead of blue cheese. I used 1/8 cup of dried chives and 1/8 cup of dried green onions. The meat I used was a little fat so these fell apart more than we liked but the taste was excellent. I ended up having to bring them in from the grill and finish frying them on the cooktop. Next time I will use lean ground beef as the recipe is written. My entire family loved these. We will make these again.
-
Great change from ordinary burgers. Hot sauce and blue cheese are meant for each other. I am a big blue cheese fan so I nearly trippled the amount of cheese but I would guess that this would be excessive for some people. Non the less you could easily double the cheese. I served the burgers on a thick slice of french bread.
-
I love
blue cheese, so anything with blue cheese in it gets five stars from me -
Very good burgers. I was surprised that the blue cheese flavor wasn’t more pronounced. I might add more next time around… and some finely chopped garlic might be a nice addition. Thanks Poni for a keeper!
-
I don’t like bleu cheese, so I thought these were just OK. My wife, who loves all cheeses, liked them much more. She said that she’d had better bleu cheese before, so maybe higher quality cheese would have made me like them more.
-
These were great! My 16 year old son, who is hard pressed to offer an opinion of any kind when it comes to food, has been asking for them repeatedly. I will definitely put these in permanent rotation.
-
Next time I make these, I will probably make some more adjustments to the recipe. I think it could have used more blue cheese,hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce. When I made these, I did increase the Worcestershire sauce to 1 tablespoon but it could probably use more for the 3 lbs., maybe 1 tablespoon per pound of ground beef. Just a personal preference though.
-
This is a divine tasting burger. I used lean beef (90/10)…and I like my burger really well done…so, it was a bit on a the dry side, but very tasty, nonetheless!! I added more blue cheese and hot sauce than called for after reading the other reviews. I also melted provolone and mushrooms over the top. I didn’t use any extra condiments on top…it didn’t need any!!! ENJOY!!
-
This is a great twist on a burger! I used ground buffalo, and let the mixture sit overnight for more flavor. I also used more hot sauce, since we love it…..
-
Very good. Next time we will add more blue cheese. Tasty! Thanks!
-
These cheeseburgers are our absolute favorite – and we have tried many! We have them at least once a week. This recipe was a real find!!!!!
