Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Jalapenos

    Slice the jalapenos and remove seeds if you prefer less heat.

  2. 2

    Make the Patties

    In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into two patties.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

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

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato and onion, and wash the lettuce.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each burger bun. Add lettuce, the cooked patty with melted cheese, jalapenos, tomato, and onion. Top with the other half of the bun.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the cheddar jalapeno burgers immediately with your favorite sides.
