Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash the jalapeno peppers thoroughly.
- Mince the jalapeno peppers finely, ensuring no large pieces remain.
- In a medium bowl, combine the minced jalapeno peppers with the softened cream cheese.
- Mix well until the jalapenos are evenly distributed throughout the cream cheese. Set this mixture aside.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (or you can use a stovetop grill pan).
- In a large mixing bowl, place the ground beef. Do not overwork the meat to ensure the burgers remain juicy.
- Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions, roughly 4 oz each.
- Take each portion of ground beef and flatten it into a round patty, about ¾-inch thick.
- Create a shallow indentation in the center of each patty using your thumb; this will help the patties cook evenly.
- Place the patties on the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
- Avoid pressing down on the patties with a spatula, as this can squeeze out the juices and make the burgers dry.
- While the burgers are grilling, you can toast the hamburger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until they are lightly golden and crisp.
- Once the patties are cooked, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
- Spread a generous amount of the jalapeno cream cheese mixture onto the bottom half of each bun.
- Place the cooked burger patty on top of the cream cheese spread.
- Add any additional toppings of your choice (such as lettuce, tomato, onion, or pickles).
- Place the top half of the bun over the patty and toppings.
- Serve the cream cheese jalapeno hamburgers immediately while hot. Enjoy!
Tips:
- 1. For a milder heat level, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeno peppers before chopping.
- 2. To ensure even distribution of flavors, mix the cream cheese and jalapeno peppers together thoroughly before stuffing the patties.
- 3. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness; the internal temperature of the burgers should reach 160°F (71°C) for safe consumption.
- 4. Toast the hamburger buns on the grill for a minute or two for added texture and flavor.
- 5. Customize your burgers with additional toppings such as lettuce, tomato, onion, or even some crispy bacon.
