These Mexican hamburgers are the best you’ll ever have!
Ingredients
- 3 pounds ground beef
- 3 onions, minced, divided
- 1 ½ cups bread crumbs
- 1 pound shredded pepperjack cheese
- 4 eggs
- 2 tomatoes, chopped and juices strained
- 2 bunches cilantro, chopped
- 1 serrano chile pepper, minced, divided
- 3 limes, juiced, divided
- 5 avocados, peeled and pitted
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 12 hamburger buns
- 1 head iceberg lettuce, cored and shredded
Directions
Step 1
Mix ground beef, half the onions, bread crumbs, pepperjack cheese, and eggs in a bowl; form into 12 patties.
Step 2
Combine tomatoes, half the remaining onion, cilantro, half the serrano chile pepper, and half the lime juice; mix well to make pico de gallo. Cover and chill in refrigerator.
Step 3
Mash avocados, remaining onions, remaining serrano chile pepper, and remaining lime juice together in a bowl to make guacamole. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat; pan-fry burger patties to desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
Step 5
Assemble each sandwich by placing a burger in each bun; top burger with guacamole, shredded lettuce, and pico de gallo.
Cook’s Note:
The pico de gallo can be made and chilled up to one day in advance.
