Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

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

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Pepper Jack cheese on each patty and cover to melt.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Spicy Mayo

    In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise and a few tablespoons of buffalo sauce to taste.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread spicy mayo on the bottom half of each bun. Place the cooked patties with melted cheese on top, followed by sliced jalapeños. Top with the other half of the bun.
