Grilled Pepper Jack Jalapeno Burgers Food

JALAPENO PEPPER JUICY LUCY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Combine the butter, chipotle and adobo in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the butter is melted and bubbly, about 4 minutes. Set aside.
• Combine the beef, bacon, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and mix together until well combined. Divide the meat into 12 balls (3 ounces each). Press a jalapeno popper into the center of one ball of meat and bring the meat up and around to completely encase the popper. Pat the meat into the flattest patty you can make while still keeping the popper completely covered. Put on the rack on the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining meat and poppers.
• Bake until the burgers are caramelized around the edges, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile brush the cut sides of the burger buns with the chipotle butter and place cut-side up on a second baking sheet. Remove the burgers from the oven and top each with a cheese slice and 2 pickled jalapeno slices. Return to the oven along with the buns and bake until the buns are hot and the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
• Serve the burgers on the buns topped with onion, tomato and lettuce.

JALAPENO JACK BURGERS

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!
