Coarse or kosher salt and freshly ground pepperto taste
1poundground turkey
Canola or vegetable oilfor coating the pan
2tablespoonsmelted butter
3tablespoonsFrank's Red Hot Sauce
8slider rolls
Instructions
In a small bowl combine the mayo, blue cheese and milk.
In a medium bowl, lightly beat the egg, add the onion, bread crumbs, salt, pepper and mix well, then add the turkey and use your hands or a spoon to combine thoroughly. Form the mixture into 8 2-inch patties, and make a little indent in the center of each so that when they cook, and the middle swells out a bit, they will end up flat.
Lightly oil a large skillet and cook the burgers over medium heat until browned on both sides and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. While the burgers are cooking, combine the melted butter and hot sauce in a shallow bowl.
After the burgers have cooked, dip each one on both sides into the butter-hot sauce mixture, and place on the bottom of a roll. Top with the blue cheese sauce and the top of the roll and serve warm.
Notes
When you form the mixture into 8 2-inch patties, make a little indent in the center of each so that when they cook, and the middle swells out a bit, they will end up flat.
The slider patties are pretty soft, so these aren't actually great for the grill, much better in a pan.
Be sure to get slider buns, because these would get totally lost in regular-sized buns.
If you like, before you cook up the burgers, toast the buns cut side down in the lightly oiled skillet, for about 1 minute over medium high heat.
