Whether you're in the stadium parking lot or on your patio, these Southwestern-style burgers are great on the grill. Sometimes I make six patties rather than eight because I like my burgers bigger and better! -Robert Hodges, San Diego, California

The burgers were good, but the chipotle mayo was a bit too spicy for me.

The burgers were a bit dry, but the chipotle mayo helped. I'll try adding some more moisture to the patties next time.

These burgers were easy to make and turned out great! I used ground turkey instead of beef, and they were still very flavorful.
