On a whim, we mixed homemade jalapeno jam into ground beef patties, then topped the burgers with caramelized onions and tangy Gorgonzola cheese. Fabulous!

Ingredients

BURGERS:

Thinly sliced jalapeno pepper, optional
2 tbsp. crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
1 pound ground beef

1/2 tsp. salt
Dash sugar BURGERS: 1/3 cup jalapeno pepper jelly

Dash sugar
Dash salt
1 medium onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 tsp. butter
1 tbsp. canola oil

Method

01

In a small skillet, heat oil and butter over medium heat. Add onion, salt and sugar; cook and stir until onion is softened, 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook until deep golden brown, stirring occasionally, 4-6 minutes.
02

In a large bowl, mix jelly, salt and pepper. Add beef; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into four 1/2-in. thick patties.
