Ingredients

• 2 lbs. ground chuck
• 1 lb. ground sirloin
• 3 tbsp steak sauce
• 6 extra-large egg yolks
• 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
• 3/4 tsp black pepper
• 4 tbsp cold unsalted butter
• 8 to 10 burger buns
• 8 oz. blue cheese
• Arugula, for serving
• Sliced tomatoes, for serving

Directions

1. In a large bowl, carefully mix the meats, steak sauce, egg yolks, salt and pepper with the tines of a fork, but do not mash the mixture. Lightly form patties and press lightly into shape. Press a thin slice of butter into the top of each burger, making sure the meat entirely encases the butter.

2. Prepare a grill and cook the burgers for 4 minutes on one side, turn, and cook for 3 minutes on the other side for medium-rare. Remove to a plate and cover with foil. Allow the burgers to rest for 5 minutes. Grill the buns, cut side down, for 1 minute, until toasted. Place the burger and a slice of blue cheese on each buns, plus arugula and tomato and serve hot.
