Last summer, I competed at the Safeway Barbecue Battle in Washington D.C. in a "Build A Better Burger" contest against my fellow beef ambassadors. Although I didn't win, my family thinks this Spicy Inside Out Burger is a trophy winner.
Spicy Inside Out Burgers
Ingredients
8 burger patties (1 lb package of hamburger)
2 green chiles
1 red onion
4 cubes of pepper jack cheese (1 inch cubes)
4 pita breads
2 cups salsa
Chipotle mayo (optional)
Directions
Finely dice green chiles and onions, mixing them into the ground beef. Roll two patties around cube of pepper jack cheese. Grill until 160 degrees. Cheese may leak out of the patties. Meanwhile, toast the pita bread and add chipotle mayo. Top with salsa and other burger additions like lettuce, tomatoe, etc as desired. Serves 4.
Enjoy this new spin on an All-American classic! Ariba!
