Low-fat cheese reduces calories, while processed cheese is often less expensive.

Take 500g minced beef (80% lean, 20% fat) and add seasonings: salt to taste, 1 tablespoon black pepper, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard.

Mix everything well by hand and let it marinate for about an hour.

Divide the mixture into four patties, making them slightly larger than the buns.

Stuff each patty with jalapeno slices and cheese, then shape them to avoid falling apart.

Refrigerate the patties for 15 minutes to firm them up.

Heat a grill pan over medium heat and add oil.

Fry the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, covering with cheese and reducing heat to low to melt the cheese for a minute.

Caramelize onions by slicing a medium onion and cooking it in a pan with 1 tablespoon butter and 1 teaspoon oil, adding 1 heaped teaspoon brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt, cooking until golden brown (15-20 minutes).

Make the burger sauce by blending 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 4-6 pickled jalapeno slices, 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 2 red Thai chilies until thick.

Toast the burger buns in a skillet with butter, adding burger sauce to both sides.

Assemble the burger with lettuce, the cooked beef patty, caramelized onions, extra burger sauce, pickled jalapenos, and drizzle with barbecue sauce before closing with the top bun.
