THROWDOWN'S GREEN CHILE CHEESEBURGERS



Throwdown's Green Chile Cheeseburgers image

In New Mexico, the state vegetable is the chile pepper, where they're layered atop beef for an iconic dish: the Green Chile Cheeseburger. Sometimes topping the Scoville chart, and sometimes mildly spicy, these burgers are defined by a relish of mixed chiles and a handsome dose of melted cheese. Bobby's recipe has poblano, Hatch and serrano chiles with honey and red wine vinegar to balance. Pickled red onions add tang, and a Monterey Jack-Parmesan queso sauce brings it home with creamy rich flavor.

GREEN CHILE CHEESEBURGER DELUXE



Green Chile Cheeseburger Deluxe image

In New Mexico, where many traditional dishes contain roasted green chiles, it's only natural that hamburgers get the chile treatment, too. If you don't have access to fresh New Mexican green chiles, try fresh Anaheim chiles. Lacking those, use roasted jalapeños that have been peeled and chopped; thinly sliced raw jalapeños; or pickled jalapeños - a compromise perhaps, but better than no chiles at all. As for cheese, any good melting kind of "queso amarillo" will do, but domestic Monterey Jack or Muenster may be even better.

Categories     dinner, lunch, burgers, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium white onion, diced small, soaked in ice water 10 minutes and drained
2 medium firm-ripe tomatoes or 6 plum tomatoes, diced
Salt, to taste
1 Serrano chile, finely chopped
Handful of chopped cilantro
4 to 6 fresh New Mexico green or Anaheim chiles
24 ounces ground beef or ground buffalo meat
Salt and pepper
8 slices Monterey Jack or Muenster
4 hamburger buns, lightly toasted
1 or 2 avocados, in thick slices

Steps:

  • Make the salsa: In a medium bowl, mix together onion, tomato, salt, Serrano chile and cilantro. This salsa tastes best when it's fresh, so don't set aside for too long.
  • Prepare a charcoal barbecue or light the broiler. When hot, roast the chiles.
  • Place chiles on a rack very close to the glowing coals, or on a baking sheet quite close to broiler flames. Using tongs, turn chiles occasionally until they are completely black and blistered all over. Alternatively, roast over stovetop flames. Set roasted chiles aside for a few minutes until cool enough to handle.
  • Cut each chile in half lengthwise, then scrape away skins and seeds with a pairing knife. Do not rinse: A few bits of char are fine. Wipe chile "fillets" with a paper towel if you wish. Slice cleaned chiles lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips and set aside. (It's fine to roast chiles in advance, even a day or two ahead.)
  • Divide ground meat into 6-ounce balls, and press them into 3/4-inch-thick patties. Season patties on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • If grilling over coals, cook burgers over brisk heat, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Add sliced cheese when the burger's juices start appearing. Move burgers to a cooler spot on the grill and let cheese continue to melt.
  • If cooking on stovetop, heat a cast-iron pan or ridged grill pan over high heat. When hot, cook burgers over brisk heat, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Add sliced cheese when the burger juices start appearing. Turn off heat and let cheese continue to melt, or place pan under broiler.
  • Place a cheeseburger on the bottom half of each bun. Adorn each burger generously with strips of roasted chile. Top the burgers with buns and serve immediately, accompanied by avocado slices and tomato salsa.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 cloves garlic
1 stick unsalted butter
1 large poblano pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium red onion, julienned
1/2 large red pepper, seeds and membrane removed, julienned
1/2 large yellow pepper, seeds and membrane removed, julienned
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 pound lean ground turkey (breast and thigh)
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, plus more for serving
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Pinch white pepper
Kosher salt
Olive oil
4 slices Monterey Jack cheese
4 brioche burger buns

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  • For the garlic butter: Place the garlic in a small saute pan and set over medium heat. Add the butter and warm through. Cook the garlic until fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes. Then place the garlic butter in the fridge to firm up again.
  • For the blistered chile: Toss the poblano with olive oil to coat. Place the pepper under the broiler or char on the grill over a direct flame until the skin blisters. When done, remove the seeds, stem and roughly chop. Reserve.
  • For the onions and peppers: Set a large saute pan over high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and saute the onions and bell peppers until wilted, 5 to 6 minutes. Season with the paprika and some salt and pepper.
  • For the turkey burgers: In a large mixing bowl, combine the turkey, mustard, Worcestershire, cumin, white pepper and the reserved blistered chile. Sprinkle with kosher salt. Mix gently until well combined. Form into four 4-ounce burger patties. Wipe the grill down with oil-blotted towels, and then place the burgers on the hot grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the burgers, top with a slice of cheese and cook until cooked through and cheese has melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside and allow to rest.
  • Smear the buns with the garlic butter. Grill the buns until golden and crispy, 20 to 30 seconds on each side.
  • To build the burgers, place 1 grilled turkey burger on the bottom half of the bun. Then top with a good heaping of sauteed onions and peppers. Finish with the top half of the bun and skewer to hold all of it together. Serve with extra mustard on the side.

  • Pre-roasting the Chilies: Roasting the chilies before stuffing intensifies their flavor and makes them more pliable for stuffing.

  • Seasoning the Beef Mixture: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A flavorful beef mixture will elevate the overall taste of the stuffed chilies.
  • Chilling the Stuffed Chilies: Chilling the stuffed chilies before cooking helps the filling set and prevents it from falling apart during cooking.
  • Using Toothpicks or Skewers: Secure the chilies with toothpicks or skewers to prevent the filling from spilling out during cooking.
  • Cooking the Stuffed Chilies: Cook the chilies in a skillet or baking dish with a flavorful sauce to infuse them with even more flavor.
