When making burgers, handle the meat as little as possible; a few pats with wet hands is all that's necessary to shape the patties.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS
For the Burgers:
1 1/2 pounds ground sirloin or chuck
Salt and freshly ground pepper
8 thin slices pancetta
Four 1/4-inch-thick slices gorgonzola cheese (4 ounces)
For the Buns:
4 hamburger buns or kaiser rolls, split
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

romaine lettuce leaves, tomato slices and paper-thin sweet onion slices

DIRECTIONS
FOR THE BURGERS:
Light a grill. Shape the meat into 4 patties and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Wrap each hamburger with 2 slices of pancetta. Grill the burgers over a medium-hot fire for about 4 minutes, or until nicely browned on the bottom. Flip the burgers and top them with the Gorgonzola. Grill for about 4 minutes longer, or until nicely browned and cooked through.


FOR THE BUNS:
Meanwhile, brush the cut sides of the buns with the butter and grill them, cut side down, until lightly toasted.


TO SERVE:
Set the burgers on the bun bottoms and top with the lettuce, tomato and onion. Serve at once.


BEER RECOMMENDATION:
Beer is all that's needed between bites of this rich burger--a flavorful brew, such as Catamount Gold, would be ideal.

Recipe mistake! See all of Eugene's reviews »
This is a perfectly good recipe from Steve Raichlen, the barbecue guru, but there is a major misprint in it.....the 3/4-inch thick slices of Gorgonzola called for should be only 1/4" thick!
