Instructions
- Grease and preheat grill.
- Add meat to a bowl, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and steak seasoning. Mash mixture with your hands to distribute seasonings well. Divide meat into 4 equal parts and shape each into a patty.
- Grill beef patties over medium-low heat for 4-7 minutes on each side until desired doneness is reached. Turn off grill. Top each cooked patty with 1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles and leave on the grill for a minute or so until blue cheese starts to melt.

Notes
My favorite trick for seasoning burgers is to use steak seasoning! Add 2-3 teaspoons of steak seasoning to your ground beef and mix well before forming patties for amazing flavor.
