Instructions
- To make the strawberry bbq sauce, place the strawberries and bbq sauce in a blender and blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and set aside.
- To make the quick pickled onions, combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Cover and set aside.
- To make the strawberry salad, combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate.
- To make the burgers, combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl and mix gently but thoroughly. Form the mixture into 6 patties.
- Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
- Brush the grill with vegetable oil. Place the burgers on the grill, cover and cook, for 4 to 6 minutes on each side. During the final 2 minutes of cooking, top each burger with some bbq sauce and a slice of Gruyere cheese and place the buns, cut side down, on the outer edges of the grill to lightly toast.
- Drain the pickled onions and toss with the Gorgonzola, strawberry salad, olive oil, and salt.
- Top each bun bottom with a patty and two strips of bacon. Pile a handful of salad on top of each bacon-topped patty. Spread some more BBQ sauce on the bun tops. Add the bun tops and serve.
