"Cheesy Jalapeño Pepper–Stuffed Burgers are sure to get your mouth watering. A jalapeño stuffed with cream cheese in a burger and grilled to perfection then smothered with a spicy cheese sauce."
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup prepared thick-and-chunky salsa
4 frozen cream cheese or cheddar cheese–stuffed jalapeño peppers
1/4 cup prepared salsa con queso
1/4 cup chopped fresh plum tomato
2 tablespoons sliced pitted ripe olives
Prepared thick-and-chunky salsa
Combine ground beef and 1/4 cup salsa in large bowl, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Lightly shape into four thin patties. Place one stuffed pepper in center of each patty; wrap beef around pepper to enclose, sealing seams and forming ball. Flatten balls into patties about 4 to 5 inches across and 1 inch thick.
Place patties on grill grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 15 to 16 minutes, turning occasionally, until instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into center registers 160°F.
Spread 1 tablespoon salsa con queso evenly over top of each burger. Sprinkle evenly with tomato and olives. Serve with salsa, as desired.
Note: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
