World’s best Blue Cheese stuffed Burgers! This is by far the best combination of ingredients for a burger; stuff burger with Blue-cheese, top with lettuce, tomatoes, caramelized onions & Portobello mushrooms, Jarlsberg cheese and Bacon Aioli. This recipe was inspired by the “Artery Buster” burger which I’ve had on numerous occasions at Peggy Sue’s restaurant in Kihei, Maui. The Bacon Aioli takes the burger over the top especially when I use Duke’s Mayonnaise
