Bring your burgers to a whole new level
We all have our “food weaknesses” and during the summer time, mine is burgers! I love the taste of burgers on the “barbie”. Thankfully David is the same way and I don’t have to tell you that we do eat a lot of burgers during BBQ season.
Here’s the thing though, you won’t see me eating burgers unless they’re homemade. I’m not a big fan of the ones at any fast food joints. Most of the places have their patties thickness about the same as an iPhone 6S. What is that? That’s not a burger! I like a nice thick burger with some personality, not some mass produced concoction.
David and I came up with a few different recipes because we both like variety – you have to have several burger recipes during summer time, right? Also the fact that we enjoy having them once a week is the reason variety becomes a necessity.
A few years ago during the summer time, I thought about having some burgers that night for dinner. The day was beautiful and warm and the night was going to be pleasant and comfortable. When I opened the refrigerator door, I had my Homemade Pickled Jalapeño Peppers jar that was almost gone, a bunch of Cilantro and an Avocado that needed to be taken care of. I also knew about some Chipotle Purée in my freezer already measured out that was sitting there for a while and needed to be used before they turned into “chipotle-icicles”…
Tada!
The light went off and the next thing I know, we were eating my latest creation… Mexican Burgers! Are they spicy? Not really but there’s definitely a bite to them. In the video, I show you two ways I prepare them; stuffed and “unstuffed”. I also share with you my Avocado Spread that goes so well with these burgers – it brings the whole Mexican theme together. If you prefer though, you can always David’s Creamy Spicy Guacamole recipe…
It is a nice change from everyday burgers and a great recipe to make for your next backyard party or anytime you want burgers. You can make these Mexican burgers ahead of time but I personally never went beyond 3 hours in the refrigerator in case my burgers dry out. Could I be wrong? Sure but why take the risk when we love moist, homemade burgers so much along with fresh homemade Hamburger Buns…
Bon Appétit!
