Jalapeño Cream Cheese Burgers

Heat up your grill to a medium temperature, allowing it to reach the optimal heat level before proceeding. Once hot, lightly brush the grill grates with oil to prevent sticking and promote even cooking.

Mince two jalapenos and mix them with softened cream cheese in a small bowl, creating a smooth and creamy mixture.

Divide the ground beef into 16 equal portions. Using your hands, shape each portion into a thin patty, approximately 1/4 inch thick.

Place a small amount of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of half of each patty, followed by the remaining patty. Gently press the edges together to seal the burger, ensuring a secure and compact shape.

Place the patties on the preheated grill and cook for approximately 10 minutes per side, or until they reach a well-done level of doneness. Resist the temptation to press down on the burgers as they cook, as this can cause the cheese to escape and compromise the texture.
