Finger Lakes Red, White, & Blue Burger

This flavorful, colorful, & patriotic concoction combines beef (the Red), French bread (the White), & Bleu cheese (the Blue), as well as some special sauces and grilled vegetables. Because of the intense flavors, Arbor Hill Noir Wine would compliment this nicely.

• 1 lb. Hamburger
• 4 oz. Arbor Hill Burgundy Garlic Peppercorn Dressing
• 8 oz. Crumbled Blue Cheese
• 8 oz. Mushrooms, sliced
• 1 Red onion, sliced
• 3 Garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 loaf French bread, sliced diagonally (1-inch. Thick slices)
• 3 Cloves of Garlic, crushed or a head of garlic roasted w/olive oil
• Olive Oil

In a mixing bowl, add 3 oz. of the Arbor Hill Dressing to the Hamburger and mix well. Make hamburger patties & grill to desired taste. Put sliced mushrooms and onions in a mixing bowl with about 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 3 crushed garlic cloves; mix well and grill with hamburgers. Coat the slices of French bread on each side with a combination of olive oil and crushed garlic, or with the olive oil left from roasting the garlic and then grill. When all items are grilled, place the hamburgers on the French bread, topped with the grilled mushrooms and onions, a healthy portion of bleu cheese, and a dollop of the Arbor Hill Burgundy Garlic Peppercorn Dressing. Enjoy!
