I think they are disgusting!! My BIL, at family gatherings, will do a batch of turkey burger, a batch a bleu cheese burger, with the bleu cheese crumbled in the patties. If it were me, it would have a bowl on the side for guests who want to sprinkle it on the hamburger. I just feel the blue cheese is very strong cheese, taste and smell wise., It seems so overwhelming, within the hamburg, itself...
Turkey burgers, seem to come out too dry!!
Turkey, should be served, mashed taters, stuffing, gravey, and cranberry sauce..
that is my vent, sorry

He could be overcooking the turkey burgers. They have less fat so that makes it a little bit of a challenge. It can be done but you really need to babysit them when grilling to prevent them from over cooking. You also have to make sure that the internal temperature is 165 to prevent salmonella. It can be done. You can really make some delicious and juicy turkey burgers. There are some great recipes out there, but I don't do anything all that special. I seer the burger on the hot side of the grill to seal in the juices then I flip it and let it finish cooking on the cooler side of the grill with a medium flame. The seer also holds the heat in while it finishes cooking.
As for the blue cheese a little goes a long way. I would think he would make some with cheese and some without. Not everyone likes blue cheese. In fact when it comes to burgers most time I do not even want any type of cheese on mine. I do not mind a blue cheese burger once in a while as I often purchase the premade beef patties. I really like the cheddar bacon beef patties!

Turkey burgers- never cared for them. I like my turkey roasted, with the occasional #4 shot still in the meat.
Blue cheese burgers are one of my favorites, but I put the cheese on top (not inside the meat).

An occasional #4? never heard of that.., is that a special sauce or something??

Wild turkeys. The "shot" is the pellets from the shot gun shells.

I love blue cheese..... in salads :) Never ate a turkey burger. I like turkey sandwiches with lettuce, mayo and sweet pickle.
I like melted swiss cheese on my burgers.

This is from an old friend who was a chef in Vegas.
It's restaurant sized, but we cut it down to our tastes. I add a lot more Worcestershire Sauce. Our kids love it!!!!
It's also great as a salad dressing! :drool:

Oh my.....sounds good.
This guy just passed away, long time restaurant owner and had a famous garlic salad dressing. The guy was a character and was just killed in a one vehicle accident, RIP. His food was always amazing. He had a sign outside of his meat company where you could purchase BBQ ribs, pulled pork, Italian Beef, his salad dressing and other items...the sign said "Free Smells." It was always fun to stop in and see him. Growing up I ate at his restaurants with my family and extended family.
I just found out he passed away a couple minutes ago when I went to look up the recipe, it was kind of a shock. There was another great restaurant owner that passed away in the past week also, famous for his BBQ ribs. He even had a restaurant in Omaha. Super great guy, had been on the Food Network, great food. I need to quit looking up news from "back home."

The only place I've ever eaten a turkey burger is at Fatburgers, and I gotta say they are delicious. Super moist and very flavorful, I actually prefer a turkey burger there to their regular burger.

An old restaurant here used to make their own Roquefort dressing. It's similar to yours, but used garlic and green onions too. I've made it before using blue cheese in place of the Roquefort. Don't remember the vinegar in it.

Mmmmmmmmm, bleu cheese!!!!! :drool: I really want a Cobb salad now with extra bacon and bleu cheese dressing, dammit!

Mistakenly bought some bacon blue cheese burgers from Sam's Club. Have to say, I was less than impressed. Most of them are still in my freezer, waiting for their chance to make a turd. They'll be waiting a while!! :-)

Why do you hate mold? :lmao:
Blue cheese is a general classification of cow's milk and/or goat's milk cheeses with a blue or blue-green mold. The blue mold in these cheeses is due to mold spores from Penicillium roqueforti or Penicillium glaucum, etc.

If you don't like blue cheese, it just leaves more for the rest of us!

If they are made right, blue cheese burgers are the best- but pre-made frozen blue cheese burgers are a no-go.
1/2 pound beef patties, grilled medium-rare
Bacon
Mushrooms, sauteed in bacon grease
Marzetti's Bleu cheese dressing with extra cheese crumbles
Toasted bun (optional- I don't eat 'em, personally)
Served with an ice-cold Rolling Rock

Interesting how Roquefort is made, they age it in caves.
I just read that before penicillin, the shepherds used it on wounds to prevent gangrene.
I always thought it was cured under manure.

Oh dear!
I really gotta convince Biersmythe there is a reason to go on a road trip!!! (I make my own blue cheese dressing, but when I feel lazy, it's either Marzettis or Maries.)

No to turkey burgers. There's something about the idea of grinding up raw turkey that just doesn't seem right. I want my turkey roasted, then sliced on soft bread with lots of mayo, salt and pepper, with sweet pickles on the side.
Love bleu cheese crumbles in salad with a vinegrette. Add sliced rare sirloin... :drool:
I make a whole beef tenderloin stuffed with sauteed mushrooms, diced green onion and minced fresh parsley with crumbled bleu cheese, tied up, then marinated in red wine vinegrette for 8 hours, then baked for about 40 minutes. :drool:
On my burgers I want either pepper jack, provolone or swiss.
