Rockin’ Black and Bleu Burger is worthy of a celebration.
The flavors are off-the-charts good.
Blackened sirloin burger. Cajun mayonnaise. Melted Bleu cheese. YES.
BLACK AND BLEU BURGER IS EASY TO PREPARE AT HOME
The main components of this amazing burger come together very quickly.
Watch us show you how easy it is to make our Rockin’ Black and Bleu Burger!
The blackening seasoning has just a hint of heat and is so flavorful.
Dried oregano and thyme, smoked paprika, onion and garlic powder, salt and pepper, with a touch of cayenne is all you need.
These spices work perfectly together for blackening the burgers!
CAJUN MAYO IS THE PERFECT CONDIMENT
This cajun mayonnaise is essential for rounding out the flavor profile for these burgers.
The lemon adds the needed acidity and brightness to really make the flavors meld.
Save what you don’t use for other sandwiches and burgers!
85% FAT SIRLOIN IS IDEAL
For this Black and Bleu Burger, you’ll want sirloin that’s not too lean. The fat will drip out as the burgers cook on the grill, but it will also make the burgers taste better.
Coat the patties all over with the seasoning.
Spray the patties and the grill with cooking oil before grilling. This helps to blacken the burgers and even make them caramelize a bit.
Get your grill to a medium-hight heat.
Cook the burgers to your liking. We love ours medium-rare, which is just about 4 minutes per side.
They blacken as they cook!
Be sure to toast your buns, preferably on the hot grill.
We add a nice pile of blue cheese to the top of each burger, and then place them under the broiler for just a minute or two, until the cheese melts.
Add the Cajun mayo and all the fixings, and you’ve got a Rockin’ Black and Bleu Burger people will be talking about for a long time!
We love to serve these amazing burgers with Perfect Homemade French Fries and a Blue Lagoon Cocktail!

- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp Cajun seasoning

FOR THE BURGERS
- 2 lbs ground beef 80% or 85% is good

Instructions

MAKE THE ROCKIN' BURGERS
- Prepare your grill to medium-high heat, for direct heat cooking.
