Hatch Burger

Makes 4–5 patties

4 brioche buns
1 ½ lbs ground beef 80/20
1 ½ teaspoons olive oil
8 oz cooked chorizo, cooled & fat rendered
8 oz fresh hatch chiles
American cheese
1 egg or 2 quail eggs
Queso sauce (optional)
¾ teaspoon salt
Fresh pepper to taste
Olive oil as needed

Prepare a hot grill & roast hatch chiles until black & blistered. Rinse chiles under cold water to remove skin & seeds. Dice ½ inch & store.

In a large bowl, mix ground beef, chorizo, salt, and pepper. Try not to overmix. Prep 7 oz portions.

Prepare a hot pan or grill.

Cook the burgers to medium. Melt 2 slices of cheese.

To assemble the burger, place 2 tablespoons of queso on the bottom bun, top with patty, hatch chiles & egg.
