burger buns

🥗Healthier: whole grain buns

💰Cheaper: white bread

Whole grain buns add fiber and nutrients.

Fire roast 2 hatch green chilies using a broiler or direct heat until the skin is charred.

Place the roasted chilies in a plastic bag to sweat the skin off, then remove the tops and slice them up.

Preheat a blackstone griddle on medium-high heat, leaving one side off for indirect cooking.

Form 2 quarter-pound patties from the ground beef and season one side with kosher salt.

Score the patties with a spatula to prevent them from cupping while cooking.

Place the patties on the griddle and cook until juices pool on top, indicating readiness to flip.

Flip the patties and add sliced roasted green chilies and cheddar cheese on top to melt.

Toast the burger buns on the griddle until lightly browned.

Assemble the burger by spreading mustard on the bottom bun, adding 4 pickles, 2 tomato slices, hand-pulled lettuce, and 2 rings of onion.

Add the first patty with melted cheese and chilies, then place the second patty on top, and crown with the top bun.
