  1. Yummy burger. We were in the mood for a spicy burger and this really hit the spot. Thanks for sharing. Made for What's on the Menu tag.
     
  2. "A thick, spicy, moist burger with attitude." You got that right Fauve!! All these bad boys needed was a little fresh ground pepper and some good old kosher salt. Oh ya...
     
  3. I used 80/20% lean burger. I cut the recipe in 1/2 and out of the 1 1/2 lbs. I got 4 good sized burgers. Loved the kick of the jalapenos, and with the cheese addition, I felt like I was in little Mexico :) I served with ketchup and salsa mixed together on top, and sour cream on top of that with some chopped onion. Now THIS is a burger. Awesome!!! Thanks Fauve!
     
  4. Burgers are so good and grilled burgers are my favorite, so this recipe enticed me to make them. I am so glad I did! Excellent spiciness from the peppers and cheese. I will be making these when the family comes over so they can enjoy them too! They were so juicy and tender. Make sure you don't press the burgers down with the spatulda. They will lose all the juices and become dry! Thank you for posting!
     
  5. I made these this past weekend and just loved them. Loved the jalapeno peppers and onion mixed in with the meat. Had a very nice zip to it. Thanks so much for posting.

<p>September 15, 2007: Here's a photo of me and my two girls before leaving our hotel room to go to an Avett Brothers concert. We're all huge fans of the group. We're also huge fans of each other. It's fun to have adult children. <br /> <br /> <br />--- About me: I'm an artist, and art teacher to kids kindergarten age through 8th grade. My life whirls at a breakneck pace. I teach approximately 800 students, and have 30 different classes each week. It's crazy!!! The rewards, however, are the numerous hugs and good vibes I get from my students. If I didn't have my good-looking husband to stabilize me, I'd surely be sporting a straight-jacket. Oh, and did I mention my yarn obsession? I've made hundreds of crochet items in the past few months, and have a little shop on etsy. Check out my website when you have the time:</p> 8754768"
