How To Make The Best Chorizo Burger Recipes

CHORIZO BURGER

Steps:

• Start by heating the 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced onion and let this cook, stirring often, until the onion has nicely browned. Turn off the heat and set aside when it's ready.
• If you are starting from fresh peppers, you will need to roast, peel and deseed them. This is a good tutorial on that, or you can use canned or pre-frozen roasted chiles.
• Add all the ingredients for the mayo and puree. Add salt to taste. You will have some left over, so keep it in a container in the fridge, where it will last a couple weeks.
• Mix the ground meats together and knead well so they combine cohesively. Form into balls and slightly flatten them. If you are grilling, just form normal patties and grill. What follows is for a smashburger.
• Get a comal or griddle or large frying pan hot. Add the 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Set one of the balls of meat in the center of the oil, and use it to spread the oil around a little. Slick the underside of a bacon press or other pan with some oil. Press the meat into a patty of about 1/2 inch thick, more or less. Hold the pressure for about 30 seconds, then slide the bacon press off the patty to the side. Don't lift straight up or the patty will break. Salt the patty as it cooks.
• Let the meat cook for about 90 seconds more, then flip. Salt the other side. Add some onions to the middle of the patty and top with a slice of cheese. I like to put a metal bowl over the burger now to melt the cheese. Let this sit for another minute to 2 minutes, depending on how well cooked you like your burgers. While this is happening, lay the lettuce leaves on your buns and top with a little of the mayo.
• To build the burger, set the patty on the bun, then top with some of the roasted chiles and some more mayo. Serve at once. You can also layer like this: patty, onions, green chiles, then cheese. The greenery always touches the bun, and the mayo or other sauce goes on between lettuce and burger. °

Steps:

• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, gently toss together the chuck and sirloin in a large bowl, making sure not to overwork the mixture.
• Combine the paprika, coriander seed, garlic, brown sugar, crushed red pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the beef and fold gently to combine. Form the beef into four 3/4-inch-thick patties, each about 4 inches in diameter. Sprinkle both sides generously with salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Place the patties in the hot skillet; do not press down with a spatula. When the patties are seared and browned on one side, flip and cook on the other side until browned, about 3 1/2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• Assemble the burgers by topping with sliced roasted red peppers and using your favorite buns and condiments.

Flip, and cook on the reverse side until the sausage patties are cooked through and the beef patties have reached the desired doneness. Remove the patties from the pan and repeat, adding another tablespoon of oil for each batch, until all the patties are cooked. Allow the burgers to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before plating.
• For the fajita-spiced peppers and onions: Heat a large saute pan over high heat until it begins to smoke. Reduce the heat to medium and swirl in the grapeseed oil. Add the peppers and onions and saute until tender.
• In a small bowl, mix together the chili powder, oregano, coriander, salt, cumin, black pepper and cayenne until well blended. Add the spice mixture to the peppers and onions and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes.
• For the corn salsa: Combine the corn, crema, red onions, poblanos, cilantro, honey and lime juice in a bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• To plate: Butter the insides of the burger buns and toast, cut-side down, in a hot skillet.
• Place a tomato slice on each bottom bun; then layer with a beef patty, some peppers and onions, a sausage patty and some corn salsa. Top with a top bun, and serve with French fries.
