How to make the burgers
- Finely chop the chipotles and 1 roasted poblano pepper
- Grate 3/4 C sharp cheddar cheese
- In a large mixing bowl, blend together the chopped chipotles and poblano with the ground beef.
- Add in the adobo sauce and grated cheddar.
- Form into four 1/2 lb burger patties - press a dip into the center of each patty so that they will cook evenly and maintain their shape.
- Cover the patties and place them in the fridge until you're ready to grill.
Chipotle Mayo
- Put 1 C mayo into your food processor, add in 1 chipotle in adobo sauce and pulse until smooth. Place in the fridge until ready to use.
Gettin' the grillin' on
- Sear the outside of the burgers over medium high on the grill, then move to indirect heat to continue the cooking process without drying out the burgers.
- During the last few minutes of cooking, place strips of roasted poblano peppers, and sharp cheddar cheese over the burgers.
- Toast the buns over the hot grill, slather the buns with chipotle mayo, put your delicious poblano chipotle cheddar burgers on the bun and top with your favorite burger toppings.
- Enjoy.
Notes
I love these with fresh lettuce and ripe tomatoes, but there's no limit to what you can do with these burgers.
