Chipotle Burger

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, add ground beef, Dad's All Purpose rub and chopped up chipotle peppers from the adobo sauce can.  Mix it all together and scoop out 1/4 lb. balls. Form the patties using a burger press or by hand to 1/2 inch thickness. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.

Step 2

For the adobo sauce, in a mixing bowl, add mayo, the adobo sauce from the chipotle peppers, freshly squeezed lime juice and a dash of Dad's All Purpose rub. Mix the ingredients together and set aside.

Step 3

Preheat the grill to 400 degrees and set for direct heat. Keep the patties on the grill for about 8 minutes flipping them half way through.

Step 4

Before removing the chipotle burger patties off the grill, add a slice of pepper jack cheese to each and let it melt over the beef.

Step 5

Remove the patties off the grill at 135 degrees internal temperature.  Let them rest for 10 minutes before assembling the burger.

Step 6

To assemble, toast the burger buns, add some crunchy lettuce, tomato and avocado slices and top it off with the creamy adobo sauce.
