Method

Preparing the Patties

  1. 1

    Mixing Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until just combined.

  2. 2

    Forming Patties

    Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Chilling Patties

    Place the patties on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 4

    Preheat the Grill

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

  2. 5

    Grilling Patties

    Once hot, grill the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, or until desired doneness is achieved.

  3. 6

    Adding Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of pepper jack cheese on each patty and cover the grill to melt the cheese.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 7

    Toasting the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, toast the burger buns on the grill until lightly golden.

  2. 8

    Building the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise. Add lettuce, a patty with melted cheese, jalapeños, tomato slices, and red onion slices. Spread 1 tablespoon of ketchup and mustard on the top half of the bun, then place it on top.
