INGREDIENTS
4 brioche burger buns
1.5 lbs ground beef, divided into 4 equal parts
1 head of green leaf lettuce leaves
1 tomato, sliced
1 red onion, sliced
1 cup pepper jelly
4 tbsp Tabañero Original hot sauce
1/2 cup cream cheese
4 slices of pepper jack cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Form the burger meat into patties. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. Create a small well in the center of each burger to help it cook evenly.
- Add your burgers to the grill and cook until you reach your desired doneness. About one minute before burgers are done, top each one with pepper jack cheese.
- Remove burgers and let them rest for a few minutes to preserve the juices.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine about 1 cup of pepper jelly with Tabañero Original hot sauce.
- Assemble burgers. Spread cream cheese onto the bottom portion of the bun. Add about 1 tbsp of the pepper jelly and Tabañero hot sauce mixture to the center of the cream cheese. Place the burger patty on top of that, then add lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Top the burger with the other half of the bun. Enjoy this mouthwatering treat!
