Cheese-Stuffed Burgers


Ingredients:
3 pound(s) ground beef chuck
2 tablespoon(s) plus 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 ounce(s) blue cheese (or other soft cheese, such as Brie)
Oil, for grates
8 rolls or buns, split
2 cup(s) packed baby spinach
2 beefsteak tomatoes, cut into 8 slices
Sautéed mushrooms (optional)
Roasted Red-Pepper Sauce:

1 cup(s) light mayonnaise
1/4 cup(s) drained (jarred) roasted red peppers
1/2 teaspoon(s) white wine vinegar
1/8 teaspoon(s) ground pepper


Directions

1.Heat grill to medium-high. In a large bowl, gently fold together beef, Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Form into 8 equal-size mounds.

2.Shape cheese into 8 equal-size disks. Press a small well in the center of each beef mound. Place cheese in well; wrap beef around cheese, pinching to seal.

3.Lightly oil grates. Place burgers on grill; cover. Cook until grill marks are visible on first side, 4 to 6 minutes. Turn burgers with a spatula; cook until grill marks are visible on other side and meat is just slightly pink in the middle, 4 to 6 minutes more for medium-rare.

4.To serve, layer bottom roll halves with spinach, burgers, tomato, and mushrooms, if using, dividing evenly. Spread top roll half with roasted red-pepper sauce, as desired.

5.To make Roasted Red-Pepper Sauce: In a food processor, combine all ingredients and puree until evenly colored and almost smooth. Refrigerate, covered, if not using immediately.
