directions

  • 1

    Prepare medium hot fire on charcoal grill or gas grill. Make the topping by mixing the first seven ingredients and set aside.

  • 2

    Make the patties, combining the Gorgonzola, parsley, and onion in a large bowl. Add the beef and season with salt and pepper. Handling the meat as little as possible, mix well. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and form into patties to fit the bread slices.

  • 3

    Brush grill rack with vegetable oil. Place patties on rack, cover and grill 5 minutes. Turn patties and cook 4 more minutes. Place slice of prosciutto on each and top with Fontina. Cover the grill and continue cooking until done, 1 to 4 minutes for medium.

  • 4

    While patties are cooking, brush bread with olive oil and place on outer edges of grill rack, turning once to toast lightly.

  • 5

    Assemble by spooning half of tomato topping on 6 of the bread slices, top with patties, add remaining tomato topping and the remaining bread slices.
