Yield Makes 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 17

Patties
1 pound freshly ground sirloin
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon chile powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
5 dashes tabasco Pepper Sauce
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for brushing on the grill rack
4 slices baked ham
4 thick slices Monterey Jack cheese
4 large sesame seed buns, split and brushed with butter
Mustard-Pickle Spread
1/4 cup dill pickle relish
1/4 cup yellow American mustard
1/4 cup spicy brown mustard

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
  • 2. To make the spread, combine the relish and mustards in a small bowl and stir to blend.
  • Set aside.
  • 3. To make the patties, combine the sirloin, garlic, chile powder, cumin, cilantro, and pepper sauce in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Handling the meat as little as possible to avoid compacting it, mix well. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form the portions into patties to fit the buns.
  • 4. When the grill is ready, brush the grill rack with vegetable oil. Place the patties on the rack, cover, and cook, turning once, until done to preference, 5 to 7 minutes on each side for medium. Just before the patties are done, turn a second time and place a ham slice and a cheese slice on top of each patty. During the last few minutes of cooking, place the buns, cut side down, on the outer edges of the rack to toast lightly.
  • 5. To assemble the burgers, spread the pickle spread over the cut sides of the buns. On each bun bottom, place a patty. Add the bun tops and serve.

I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to try the grilled pineapple on a burger, but the rest of the burger sounds delicious.

I thought these burgers were just okay. I wasn't a big fan of the mojo sauce.

These burgers were easy to make and turned out great! I used Swiss cheese instead of cheddar, and I added a fried egg to the top. Yum!
