Mexican Chili Cheese Burger

Recreate this classic Southern-style burger at home, featuring a juicy Wagyu beef patty, molten cheddar, and a zesty Mexican chili-infused mayonnaise.

Ingredients

• 120 g Wagyu beef patty
• 1 Milk burger bun
• 1 slice Cheddar cheese
• 50 g White onion
• 30 g Green peppers
• 2 Mexican chili peppers
• 3 tbsp Mayonnaise
• 1 leaf Lettuce
• 1 slice Tomato
• 1 tsp Pickle juice
• to taste Black pepper
• to taste Sea salt

Instructions

1. 1Prepare the spicy mayonnaise sauce

   

   In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with freshly chopped Mexican chili peppers. For a zestier flavor, add a splash of pickle juice and stir the mixture thoroughly until well combined.

   Tip: If you prefer a tangier sauce, adjust the amount of pickle juice to your taste.
2. 2Sauté the aromatics

   

   Place the sliced onions and green peppers onto a hot flat-top grill. Stir-fry them continuously with a metal spatula until they are softened and lightly caramelized, then season with black pepper and sea salt.

   Tip: Cooking the onions and peppers on a high-heat grill helps develop a sweet, charred flavor.
3. 3Sear the beef patty

   

   Place the 120g Wagyu beef patty onto the hot grill. Use a heavy metal burger press to flatten the patty firmly against the grill surface to ensure an even, flavorful crust. Season the patty with black pepper and sea salt.

   Tip: Pressing the patty helps create a better sear and keeps it flat during the cooking process.
4. 4Finish and top the patty

   

   Flip the beef patty once it has developed a deep, browned crust. Immediately top the patty with the previously stir-fried onions and peppers, followed by a slice of cheese. Use a kitchen torch to melt the cheese until perfectly gooey.

   Tip: Using a torch ensures the cheese melts evenly without overcooking the beef patty underneath.
