Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burger Patty

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, diced jalapeños, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat.

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patty for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of pepperjack cheese on top of the patty to melt.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger bun if desired. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on the bottom half of the bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, and condiments. Add the top half of the bun.
