  pepper. Stir through, cover the pan and keep warm.
• 2 Preheat your grill to 375 degrees F or medium-high heat.

  beef.
• 4 In a large bowl, combine ground beef, bacon, onion soup mix, and Worcestershire
  sauce.
• 5 Form mixture into 4 equal-sized hamburger patties. Make a small dent in the
  center of each patty.
• 6 Place the patties on the grill and cook for 6 minutes per side until they reach
  an internal temperature between 160-165 degrees F.
• 7 Toward the end of cooking time, brush the cut side of the brioche buns with
  olive oil.
• 8 Place the bunch oiled side down on the grill, and toast them for 1-2 minutes
  until golden brown.
• 9 Remove burger patties and buns from the grill, and assemble your burgers.
• 10 Top each patty with crumbled blue cheese and caramelized onions.
• 11 Store leftover burger patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for
  up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet on your stove top or in a 325-degree oven for
  best results.
