You can also just mash them all  together with a spoon.<\/p>\n<p>Flatten an 11 inch piece of plastic wrap  or waxed paper on your workspace. lay the softened butter with the herbs  down and flatten it into a rectangle so you can roll it. Pour on the  crumbled blue cheese and press the cheese into the butter mixture.<\/p>\n<p>Roll into a log with the diameter of about  a silver dollar. Roll it into one piece, not a roll like a fruit roll  but one solid roll. Place this in the freezer until it hardens.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes time to grill. Slice up the  roll into discs, about a 1\/4&#8243; to 1\/2&#8243; thick and place one disc in the  center of your hamburger patty. Flatten them out and flop &#8217;em on the  grill. Grill half way done and turn, then lay a slab of Monterey Jack on  top. Grill until the cheese melts or until they are done like you like  them.<\/p>\n<p>The butter melts and moistens the center of  the burger, leaving hot bubbly Blue Cheese and herbs along the middle of  the burger. Since the Monterey Jack is a mild cheese, it doesn&#8217;t fight  it out with the Blue Cheese. You can use any mild cheese you like, or  for a spicy alternative try some Pepper Jack.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you enjoy the blog, please visit the main web site for Outdoor Cooking World at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.outdoorcookingworld.com\">http:\/\/www.outdoorcookingworld.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blue Cheese Burger Melts This recipe is always a smash hit, especially with your traditional burgers and hot dog crowd.
