Honestly I think a garlic salt,onion salt, and fresh ground pepper seasoning to give the fries a sweet and salty taste. As for the dip I'd just use the standard blue cheese or ranch dressing dip, but maybe add some sriracha to give it some heat.

Okay this was 100% experimentation and it couldn't have come out better.

Pete's Bleu Cheese Burger

Things You'll Need.

-Ground Beef
-Salt/Pepper
-Garlic Salt
-Egg
-Crumbled Bleu Cheese
-1/2 onion
-2 mushrooms
-Crema
-Heavy Cream

We'll start with making your hamburger patties first. In a mixing bowl add your ground beef, salt/pepper, garlic salt, and egg. Then with your hands start mixing all the ingredients together, adding more if you think you need it. Shape into a patty (or use some plastic wrap and a lid), put on a plate, cover with plastic wrap and put that in the fridge for 1 hour.

At about 55 minutes after putting the patty in the fridge, start chopping your onion so they are shaped like long strips and start frying them (preferably in a cast-iron pan). The trick to fried onions is to move them as little as possible. After about five minutes add your mushrooms (I did mine as 1/4" cuts all the way through the shroom). Once they've carmalized, add your heavy cream (I'd say about 1/2 cup if you're only making one burger) and let that sit for a minute or two, then start stirring. The crema is optional, but I found it helped thicken the mixture up quite a bit, and I used about 1/2 a teaspoon. The mixture will take on a beige color from the onions, and when it's starting to thicken, add a teaspoon of crumbled bleu cheese. You don't want to add too much because of how strong it is, and I used 2 teaspoons and it was a little strong. Stir that together and then turn it down to a low setting, stirring occasional so it stays fluid.

Now I'll leave you to your preferred method of cooking the burger, I had to pan-fry it because my oven is broken right now and I don't have a BBQ or George Foreman grill, but when it's cooked to your preferred state of doneness, put on a bun and scoop your bleu cheese sauce, pour on top of the burger and enjoy.

Anyone ever had goat's cheese?

The most revolting, foul tasting thing I have ever tasted. I'm cringing at it now. Eurgh.

I actually love goat cheese with herbs. I find goat milk a little gamey but goat cheese is pretty mild in taste, similar to a brie.

I can't describe the taste but mild is not the word I'd use. Tastes like a farm.

I'm sure there are different brands that have different aging processes, but i've never encountered a goat cheese that wasn't fairly mild in taste. I prefer Gruyere and Stilton blue cheeses and those are what I consider to be the stinky cheeses of life. Could just be a taste bud thing, but I love goat cheese in moderation.

Try goat cheese with apples, caramelized onion, turkey slices, and balsamic vinegar on bread. You might change your mind.

I used to be the buyer in a cheese shop and have tasted thousands of different cheeses from all over the world.

And I've still never found a goats cheese I like. Fluff is right, they all taste like farmyards.
