Beef Patty

Cheddar Cheese

Crispy Onions

Raspberry Chipotle Sauce

Method

Beef Patty

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

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

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties roughly 1/2 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness.

Popper Mix

  1. 4

    Prepare the Poppers

    Slice the jalapeños in half and remove the seeds. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, cheddar cheese (for poppers), and bacon bits together until well combined.

  2. 5

    Fill the Jalapeños

    Stuff each jalapeño half with the cream cheese mixture. Set aside.

  3. 6

    Cook the Poppers

    Place the stuffed jalapeños on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes or until the jalapeños are tender and the cheese is bubbly.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 7

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking the beef patties, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty to melt.

  2. 8

    Build the Burger

    On a toasted bun, place the beef patty with melted cheddar, add the stuffed jalapeños, and top with crispy fried onions.

  3. 9

    Add Sauce

    Drizzle raspberry chipotle sauce generously over the top of the onions.

  4. 10

    Serve

    Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately with extra sauce on the side.
