Ingredients:
1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
2 tablespoons butter
1-1/2 pounds lean ground beef
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon chili powder

-In a skillet, saute mushrooms in butter for 2-3 minutes or until tender. Set aside and keep warm.
-In a bowl, combine the beef and seasonings just until mixed. Shape into eight thin patties. Sprinkle half of the patties with blue cheese. Top with remaining patties; press edges firmly to seal.
-Grill, uncovered, over medium-hot heat for 3 minutes on each side. Brush with some of the barbecue sauce.
-Grill 10-12 minutes longer or until juices run clear, basting and turning occasionally.
-Drain the mushrooms. Serve burgers on rolls topped with mushrooms.
