On the menu next for the Blogger Burger Club is Katie Lee’s (formerly Katie Lee Joel) Award-Winning Logan County Burger which can be thought of as a glorified grilled cheese or a traditional patty melt gone askew. For the better. It is a thin burger patty sandwiched between slices of bread melted with American cheese and onions. Katie Lee says the cheese is optional but…I think not! The cheese is a big part of its attraction.
This burger has been on my radar since last year when Katie Lee won the Burger Bash in NYC at the Food and Wine Festival. There was controversy after her win over whether the burger was truly a burger or a just another version of the patty melt sandwich. I think the whole thing is silly. To me it’s a burger no matter what kind of bread or bun it’s on. I think she was being picked on for being female, the only one in the contest. The connection isn’t hard to make. She whipped some very popular NYC male chefs butts. Fair and square.
I love grilled cheese. I love burgers. I have no choice but to love grilled cheese burgers. These are the epitome of comfort food: a rich, thin, juicy burger patty trapped between buttery, toasted bread and ooey-gooey, molten cheese. Mouth-watering, melt-in-your mouth delicious! I had one last night…I am having one again tonight for dinner. I can’t help it. They’re just dreamy.
It’s pretty obvious I’m giving it 4 stars. I could eat these every day.
The recipe is for six burgers but it’s pretty easy to break it down if you’d like to make less than that. If you need help breaking it down e-mail me and I will be glad to help.

I made these burger last night and they were incredible.Instead of grating half the onion, I put half the large onion in a blender, along with the egg and spices. I also added a glug of worcestershire sauce.The blonded mixture makes the meat mixture loose, so I stuck it in the fridge for about an hour, then made the patties.EXCELLENT!
