Jalapeno Popper Cheeseburger
- Prep Time: 30 mins
- Cook Time: 10 mins
- Total Time: 40 mins
- Yield: 6 burgers 1x
Ingredients
- 4 jalapeno peppers
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese plus extra for a topping
- 2 pounds lean ground beef
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 6 hamburger buns
- 1 onion
- 1 head of romaine lettuce
Instructions
- Turn your to broil on high
- Place your jalapenos on a foil lined baking sheet
- Place the baking sheet on the highest grate in your oven and let the jalapenos char
- When the jalapenos are black and charred on the top, take the baking sheet out of the oven and turn the jalapenos over
- Continue this until the jalapenos are charred all the way around
- Place them in a bowl and cover tightly with saran wrap
- Let them sit for 5 minutes
- Take each jalapeno out of the bowl and peel the skin off – it should come off easily after being roasted and steamed
- Finely chop the jalapenos (I left the ribs and seeds in, but if you don’t like spicy food you can take them out)
- Shred the cheddar cheese
- In a large bowl add the ground beef, jalapenos, cheese, and 2 teaspoons of salt
- Mix the meat together with your hands until everything is combined
- Form the meat into 6 patties and grill on each side until cooked through, melting a little bit of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last few minutes
- Place on a whole wheat bun and top with onions and lettuce!
