How to Make Avocado B L T Burgers With Caramelized Chipotle Onions
- **Caramelize the Onions:** In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, combine 2 large yellow onions (thinly sliced), 1 tablespoon chipotle pepper sauce, ½ cup beef broth, 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 cloves garlic (minced), and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Cover the skillet.
- **Grill the Onions:** Once your grill coals are ready, place the covered skillet on the grill rack. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and most of the liquid has evaporated.
- **Prepare the Cheese Spread:** In a small saucepan, combine 4 ounces of spreadable cheese (like cream cheese) and 2 ounces crumbled blue cheese. Cover and set aside.
- **Make the Burger Patties:** In a large bowl, gently combine 1 ½ pounds ground beef, ½ cup of the caramelized onions (reserve the rest for serving), ¼ cup red wine, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (such as rosemary and thyme), 1 teaspoon chipotle pepper sauce, and 1 teaspoon seasoned salt.
- **Shape the Patties:** Shape the beef mixture into 6 round patties, about ¾ inch thick.
- **Grill the Patties:** Brush the grill rack with vegetable oil. Place the patties on the grill, cover, and cook for 4 minutes per side for medium, adjusting time for desired doneness.
- **Warm the Cheese Spread:** During the last few minutes of grilling the patties, place the saucepan with the cheese spread on the outer edge of the grill rack to warm it until soft and spreadable.
- **Grill the Avocado and Bacon:** Brush 2 ripe avocados (sliced) with balsamic glaze and sprinkle with spicy seasoned salt. Arrange on a lightly oiled, rimmed nonstick perforated grilling pan and grill alongside the patties for 1-2 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear. Add 6 slices bacon to the pan during the last 30 seconds of grilling.
- **Toast the Buns:** Place burger buns, cut-side down, on the outer edges of the grill to lightly toast.
- **Assemble the Burgers:** Spread a generous amount of the warm cheese spread on the cut sides of the toasted buns. Layer lettuce, tomato slices, a beef patty, caramelized onions, grilled avocado, and bacon on the bottom bun. Add the top bun and serve immediately.
