Chorizo does all the work seasoning these burgers, and the aioli comes together in minutes. Wrap the juicy patties in lettuce for a keto version. Don't worry—the carb lovers in your home can still enjoy them on buns. —Becky Woollands, North Ridgeville, Ohio

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 pound fresh chorizo or bulk spicy pork sausage
  • 6 slices pepper jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons canned chopped green chiles
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 6 slices tomato
  • 1 medium ripe avocado, peeled and sliced
  • Optional: Pickled red onions and hot pepper sauce, such as Cholula
  • 6 Bibb lettuce leaves

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine beef and chorizo, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Shape into six 6-in. patties. Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat (or broil 3-4 in. from heat) until a thermometer reads 160°, 6-8 minutes on each side. Top with cheese; grill, covered, until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes longer.
  2. Meanwhile, combine mayonnaise, chiles, cilantro and lime juice. Top burgers with sauce, tomato, avocado and, if desired, pickled onions and hot pepper sauce. Wrap in lettuce leaves.
