01
Step 1
Start by heating your grill to medium-high and give the grates a light brush with oil so the burgers don’t stick. In a bowl, mix together the ground beef, chopped onion, chipotle peppers, and taco seasoning with your hands until everything is well combined. Then, shape the mixture into four evenly sized patties. Place the patties on the grill and cook them for about 7 to 10 minutes on each side. You’re aiming for the burgers to be firm and cooked through, with no pink in the middle. If you have a meat thermometer, check that the center reads 160°F. Once done, take them off the grill and let them rest a few minutes before serving.
Why you’ll love it
This burger combines the smoky heat of chipotle with the classic flavors of a taco. It’s a fun twist that’s full of bold, delicious taste. Perfect for anyone who likes a little spice and something different from the usual burger.
How to serve
Serve with a side of crunchy tortilla chips and a fresh salsa or guacamole. A simple green salad or corn on the cob also pairs well to balance the spicy flavors.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftover patties and toppings separately in airtight containers in the fridge. Use within 2 days for best taste. Reheat patties gently to avoid drying them out.
