Ingredients

1 lbs Ground beef 80/20 blend
1/3 lbs Chorizo
1 tbsp Taco seasoning
4 Poblano peppers
1 tbsp Olive oil
2 cups Chihuahua cheese
1 cup Mexican sour cream
1 Cilantro batch
2 Freshly squeezed lime juice
1/2 cup Pico de gallo
4 Hamburger buns

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, add in the ground beef, chorizo and taco seasoning. Mix it well together.
Separate the meat into 4 even sections and form the patty into a round and flat shape.
Set aside in the fridge.
Coat the peppers with a little bit of olive oil and place on the grill for direct heat at 400 degrees. Flip the peppers every minute until it has a heavy char all around.
Take them off the grill and place them in a ziplock bag.
In a food processor, add Mexican sour cream, cilantro, freshly squeezed lime juice and a dash of taco seasoning. Blend it all together and set aside for assembly.
Now that the charred poblano peppers had a few minutes to steam, gently remove the charred skin.
Cut off the top of the pepper and scoop out any remaining seeds.
Stuff the pepper with shredded chihuahua cheese.
Make sure to set up the grill for dual heat at 400 degrees.
The peppers will need a little more time so place those first on the indirect side. Total cook time is 10 minutes.
Place the beef and chorizo patties on the direct side and grill for 3-4 minutes per side or until they reach 145 internal temperature.
Assemble the burger.
