Jalapeno Bacon Cheeseburgers Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Seed and finely chop your jalapeno pepper.
• 2. Add ground beef and the chopped jalapeno to a bowl.
• 3. Chop the chipotle pepper. Add that plus the adobo sauce to the ground beef and jalapenos.
• 4. Add the liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and mayo to another bowl. Whisk together.
• 5. Combine all ingredients into the bowl with the ground beef and thoroughly mix with your hands.
• 6. Divide the ground beef into four sections and make your patties.
• 7. Cook the burgers however you see fit. I grilled them and finished them off in the oven to help melt the cheese. You do what you see fit. Cooking them in a cast iron skillet would be remarkable.
• 8. Don't forget to cook your bacon! Fry in a skillet. Or, I put mine in the oven at 375 for 12 to 15 minutes depending on your oven the cooking time may vary.
• 9. Once your burgers are cooked, assemble them the way you see fit.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over a medium heat. When the skillet is hot, add the bacon and cook until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease from the skillet and place back on the heat.
• Add the onion, jalapenos and garlic to the skillet and stir. Add the ground chuck and season with salt and pepper. Cook the meat, crumbling as you go, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for about 30 seconds.
• Add the macaroni, broth, mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Give it a big stir and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente and the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the Cheddar. Sprinkle over the cooked bacon, parsley and pickled jalapenos, if using. Remove from the heat and serve.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine ground beef and seasonings well, but don't overwork the meat! Form 2 patties out of the mixture.
• Grill burgers to your liking.
• Just before you take the burgers off the grill, top each burger with the jalapeno slices, a cheese slice, and finally 3 bacon slices. Once cheese starts to melt, remove from grill. (The cheese acts as a glue keeping everything together!).
• Put burgers on buns and enjoy! ***We like to top our burgers with sliced red onions and a big dollop of guacamole!
