Equipment

  • cutting board with sharp knife
  • sauté pan
  • spatula
  • baking sheet with grated oven rack

Ingredients

  • 16 oz. Beyond Beef
  • 1 medium red onion - diced
  • 4 oz. blue cheese - crumbled
  • 4 tbsp. barbecue sauce - vegetarian
  • 4 oz. arugula
  • 4 burger buns - or 8 slider buns
  • 2 oz. pickles - sliced
  • 2 oz. pickled jalapeños - optional
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • garlic powder - just a sprinkle
  • salt & pepper - just a sprinkle

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. (175 C.) Dice a medium onion. Add 2 tbsp. olive oil to a pan and sauté over MEDIUM heat for 5 minutes until lightly brown. Turn off heat.
  • Place 4 burger buns (or 8 slider buns) on a grated oven rack. Toast for 7 minutes. 
  • While buns toast, turn heat to MEDUIM - HIGH, and add 16 oz. Beyond Beef to the pan and gently chop it up with a spatula. Mix with onions and season with a sprinkle of garlic powder, salt and pepper. Allow to sauté until brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Turn off heat and add 4 tbsp. barbecue sauce (or more if you want them extra saucy). Mix together. Add 4 oz. crumbled blue cheese and fold into the mixture without mixing completely. You want nice chunks of blue cheese to remain un-mixed.
  • Remove buns. Distribute “beef” mixture evenly on top. Add pickles and jalapeños (optional), add arugula and serve.
