JALAPENO JACK BURGERS



Jalapeno Jack Burgers image

These are very spicy but so good. If you want less spicy, you can use a less spicy pepper - like a poblano. These are great on the grill or any other way you cook a burger!!

Provided by MelvinsWifey

Categories     Cheese

Time 30m

Yield 4 burgers, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 jalapenos
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup onion, finely diced
4 slices monterey jack pepper cheese

Steps:

  • On the grill or under the broiler, roast the jalapeno peppers whole, until they start to turn black. Once they are black on all sides, put into a brown paper bag, close and let sit 5 minutes. Remove from bag and peel off skin.
  • Using a knife, slit open jalapenos, and take the seeds out and remove the stem. Cut jalapenos in half so you have 4 total slices of jalapeno. Set aside.
  • In a bowl combine ground beef, 1 egg, ketchup, salt, garlic, and onions. You may also use any other seasonings you like in your hamburger mixture. Mix well.
  • Form 8 thin patties. Take one slice of jalapeno and one slice of pepper jack cheese and place on 4 of the patties. Top each patty with remaining four patties and seal the edges together so the cheese doesn't leak out.
  • Grill burgers or cook as usual until done. Your burgers will have a spicy, cheesey surprise in the middle of each one. Delicious!

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, flavorful vegetables, and high-quality ground beef. The better the ingredients, the better the burgers will be.
  • Mix the burger patties gently: Overworking the meat will make the burgers tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Form the burger patties evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Use a burger press or your hands to form the patties into 1/2-inch thick patties.
  • Season the burger patties well: Season the patties with salt, pepper, and your favorite seasonings. You can also add a teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce for extra flavor.
  • Cook the burger patties over medium heat: This will prevent them from burning on the outside and staying raw on the inside. Cook the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Top the burgers with your favorite toppings: Cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and onion are all classic burger toppings. You can also get creative and add your own favorite toppings, such as avocado, pineapple, or mushrooms.

Conclusion:

These grilled pepper jack jalapeno burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. They are perfect for a summer cookout or a casual weeknight dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy a juicy, flavorful burger that is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
