Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 1/2 pounds grass-fed ground beef
  • 2 grilled jalapeños
  • 4 ounces sliced cheddar cheese
  • salt and pepper
  • buns or GF buns
  • lettuce (extra if lettuce wraps)
  • sliced tomato
  • sliced sweet onion
  • homemade Mayo or other condiments

Instruction

  • Preheat grill to medium heat. Once hot, place jalapeños on grates. Close lid and cook 2 minutes. Turn and repeat. Total cook time is about 6 minutes. Jalapeños should begin to have black grill marks on and begin to soften. You don't want them super soft like roasted peppers.
  • Remove jalapeños and allow to cool. Slice into rounds and set aside.
  • To prepare burgers begin by dividing the meat into four 6-ounce portions. Sprinkle each with a bit of salt and pepper.
  • Take each portion and slice in half. Use the palm of your hand to smash each half into a flat patty so you have two 3-ounce patties per burger.
  • Layer one 3-ounce patty with 1-ounce cheddar cheese and 5 to 7 sliced jalapenos. Place the remaining 3-ounce burger patty on top and press together the sides until the burger is totally sealed. Repeat until all four burgers are complete.
