Prepare the Burger Patty

1. Mix Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

2. Form Patties

Divide the mixture into two equal portions, and shape each portion into a patty that is about 1-inch thick.

3. Preheat Grill or Skillet

Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat.

4. Cook Patties

Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 4 minutes. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of pepper jack cheese on each patty to melt.

Prepare the Toppings

5. Prepare Jalapeños

Slice fresh jalapeños into thin rings. If desired, remove seeds for less heat.

6. Cook Jalapeño Poppers

If using frozen jalapeño poppers, cook them according to package instructions until crispy.

Assemble the Burger

7. Toast the Bun

Toast the cornmeal kaiser bun on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

8. Layer the Ingredients

Spread chipotle mayo on the bottom half of the toasted bun. Place the cooked burger patty on top, followed by jalapeños and jalapeño poppers.

9. Complete the Burger

Add the top half of the bun to complete the burger. Serve immediately with your favorite sides.
