Blue cheese and bacon is the perfect combo.
I know that blue cheese may not be everyone’s favorite cheese, but it is one that brings the flavor. This is especially true when it is added alongside bacon. These blue cheese bacon burgers are the perfect burger to enjoy with a side of homemade french fries.
Blue cheese bacon burgers with all the flavor.
Blue cheese is a strong cheese whose flavor is best when paired alongside complimenting ingredients. In the case of these burgers, it is the bacon and buffalo mayonnaise. The blue cheese brings that well-known tangy flavor, the bacon adds a touch of saltiness, and then the buffalo mayonnaise brings in the perfect balance.
These burgers are full of enough flavor that they can be eaten alone, in a salad, in a wrap or on a crustini bun. How would you eat your blue cheese bacon burger?
