- 2 pounds ground beef (I was probably closer to a pound ish)
- 1/2 cup finely diced onion (white, red or yellow)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 small jalapeƱo, seeded and finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Juice of 1/2 lime (about 1/2 tablespoon or so)
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 soft hamburger buns
- Guacamole
- Extra cheddar slices
- Tomatoes
- Lettuce
- Whatever else your heart desires to put on these babies
For Serving:
- Heat a charcoal or gas grill to medium-high heat (about 400 degrees if you have a temperature gauge on the grill). If needed, oil the grates to keep the burgers from sticking. I did this in my cast iron pan, no grills here.
- In a large bowl, mix all of the burger ingredients together until well combined. I just dig in with my hands and mix it all up.
- Shape the meat mixture into 6 patties (I judge the size by how big the buns are and make the meat mixture slightly larger since they'll shrink a bit while cooking). I made two patties as previously stated.
- Grill the meat patties for 5 to 6 minutes per side, more or less, depending on how thick the turkey burgers are. Tent with foil after removing from the grill and let rest for 3-5 minutes before serving. Serve with desired toppings - I highly encourage the use of guacamole because it makes the burgers absolutely out of this world.
