How to Make Jalapeno Jack Burgers

  1. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 pound ground beef, 1/2 cup finely chopped jalapeños (or poblanos), 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cumin.
  2. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from bulging during cooking.
  3. Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the cooking surface.
  4. Cook the burgers for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for your desired doneness. Add 4 slices of Jack cheese during the last minute of cooking.
  5. Serve the burgers on toasted buns with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and mayonnaise or your favorite burger sauce.
