Partnering with Castello for a Summer of Blue, this Blue Cheese Breakfast Burger is loaded with delicious blue cheese, layered with hash browns, a ground chuck patty, bacon & an egg – sunny side up!
It’s everything you love about breakfast, packed on your burger & complimented by the great taste of blue cheese. Heaven on a bun!
Have I mentioned before that I like my food hearty? I’m not a salad feign like my kids. Maybe you gathered that already by how few salads you find here on Kleinworth & Co. I will rarely turn down a good burger.
One of my ALL TIME favorite ways to eat a burger is with blue cheese. I swoon over it!! In fact – it’s also my favorite topping for steak. Can’t get enough of that great taste!
I’m practically giddy to share this Blue Cheese Breakfast Burger with you! It’s been all I could do to not let the cat out of the bag because it was INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS.
The last time I was back home in So Cal we visited this place a couple of times for dinner. Each time my brother chose this burger with an over-easy egg on it.
It was gooey & messy & all things that make for a great burger. So I decided to take that up a few more notches & add all my other favorite breakfast foods on there too.
Breakfast Burger Recipe
I absolutely LOVE blue cheese on so many things & yet it’s so hard to try to melt the crumbles. So I was SUPER EXCITED to see that Castello now offers a Burger Blue blue cheese.
It’s made just for people like me that really love a good blue cheese. At first, I thought I might share with you one of my favorite ways to enjoy my blue cheeseburger – you know, with some beer-battered onion rings & bbq sauce. But then I had an even better idea to make this breakfast burger & I’m swooning.
Breakfast Burger Ingredients
It’s every bit as good as it looks. I know that most wouldn’t think to add blue cheese with breakfast foods but let me tell you- you HAVE TO try it.
It MAKES the burger! All those wonderful flavors all come together & it’s truly an experience you have to have. The best part is that you can have this for any meal.
Here are some commonly asked questions
Can I use a different type of cheese?
Yes, absolutely, that will work just fine. Obviously, it won’t be a blue cheeseburger, but this also tastes great with American or cheddar cheese too.
Check out Castello’s website for more information on their cheeses.
Can I make these with ground turkey or chicken?
I have not personally tried it, but I would imagine that would be just as delicious. Please let me know how that turns out.
How many can this serve?
This recipe makes 8 burgers, or more if you decide to make these ingredients into sliders. You can double this recipe if you are feeding a crowd.

HOW DO YOU MAKE Blue Cheese Breakfast Burger?
- Preheat your grill to a seer.
- Prepare your patties while your grill is heating by combining the beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, seasoned salt, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Work together with your hands and then form into patties.
- Place raw patties on a baking sheet & brush with olive oil.
- Once the grill is ready – place patties on the grill to seer – flipping once to seer both sides.
- Once seared, lower temperature & allow to cook for about 15-20 minutes, flipping only one more time. (grass-fed beef will cook a little faster than grain-fed beef) Don’t press down on the patties – or you will press all the juices out. You want to just let them cook without being disturbed, slow & steady.
- When you are getting close to done, insert a meat thermometer – if it reaches above 160 degrees – add your cheese & allow to melt slightly before removing patties from the grill. (if they have not reached 160 degrees, continue cooking a little longer)
What about the extra ingredients?
- **Have someone inside preparing the other ingredients (cooking the bacon, eggs & hash browns)
- Spread out the bacon on a foil-lined baking sheet & cook in a 400-degree oven for approx 20-30 minutes depending on the thickness of your bacon & how you like it cooked.
- Cook the eggs sunny side up by cracking into a small skillet & cooking over low until all the whites of the egg have firmed (about 5 minutes). Keeping in mind that the egg will continue to cook after you have removed it from the heat – do not flip.
- To make the hash browns, preheat a couple of tablespoons of peanut oil in a large skillet.
- Once the oil is hot- drop in your hash browns – cooking several minutes on each side until cooked through.
- Remove & place on a wire rack to drain & crisp.
- Once all your ingredients are prepared it’s time to assemble this amazing burger.
- Place several slices of blue cheese on your bottom burger bun (it will melt from the heat of your other ingredients)
- Add your hash brown, then your burger patty. Top with bacon & finally your egg.
What is the best way to store leftover burgers?
Place any leftover ingredients in separate airtight containers and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
