Jalapeño Popper Burgers Recipe

INGREDIENTS

4 oz. cream cheese, softened

1/2 c. shredded cheddar

1/2 c. shredded mozzarella

2 jalapeños, minced

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

6 slices bacon, cooked and chopped

1/2 tsp. chili powder

1 1/2 angus ground beef

4 burger buns

DIRECTIONS

1. Make filling: In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese, cheddar, mozzarella, and jalapeños. Season with salt and pepper, then fold in cooked bacon.

2. Form ground beef into 8 large, thin rounds (about ¼”). Spoon about ¼ cup of filling mixture onto one patty, then place a second patty on top. Pinch edges to seal burger and re-shape into a disc if necessary. Repeat with remaining patties and filling mixture.

3. Preheat grill to medium-high. Season burgers on both sides with chili powder, salt, and pepper. Place on grill and cook until cooked through to your liking, about 6 minutes per side for medium.

4. Sandwich with burger buns and serve immediately.
