Ready in less than 30 minutes, open-faced burgers feature garlic-buttered bread and a bit of blue cheese.
Ingredients
- 2
cloves garlic, finely chopped - 1/4
cup butter or margarine - 2
teaspoons Worcestershire sauce - 3
lb lean (at least 85%) ground beef - 2
tablespoons Montreal steak grill seasoning - 1
cup blue cheese crumbles (4 oz) - 8
diagonal slices (1 inch thick) French bread - 2
cups loosely packed baby salad greens
Steps
1
In 8-inch skillet, cook garlic in butter over low heat 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until garlic is tender. Stir in Worcestershire sauce. Remove from heat.
2
Heat gas or charcoal grill. In large bowl, mix beef and grill seasoning. Shape mixture into 8 oval patties, 1/2 inch thick.
3
Place patties on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 10 to 12 minutes, turning once, until meat thermometer inserted in center of patties reads 160°F. Remove from grill to platter; top with cheese. Place bread on grill. Cover; cook 2 to 4 minutes, turning once, until lightly toasted.
4
Spread one side of each toasted bread slice with butter mixture. Top bread slices with salad greens and burgers.
Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens
tip 1
Shape the oval burgers slightly larger than the slices of French bread. They tend to shrink slightly as they cook.
tip 2
Use your favorite small salad greens. Baby arugula or spinach provides a slightly bitter flavor that goes well with the grill flavor and blue cheese.
tip 3
Grill seasonings are found with the other spices in the baking section of the grocery store. They are salt and pepper mixtures with other herbs and spices added.
