Prep Time 15 Min | Cook Time 10 Min | Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 4 hamburger buns
  • 4 sirloin burger patties
  • 12 oz sautéed onions
  • 1 tbsp jalapeño peppers, diced
  • 2 tbsp sliced jalapeño peppers
  • 4 oz leafy green lettuce
  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 4 oz sliced pimientos, drained
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions

  • Start by preparing the pimento cheese spread. In a medium bowl, combine the diced jalapeño, cheese, pimientos, and sour cream. Mix until combined.
  • Set the mixture aside. Cook the burger patties on the grill or skillet until they reach your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to verify the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F.
  • To assemble the burgers, spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun, then place a lettuce leaf on top. Add a cooked burger patty and spoon a generous amount of pimento cheese spread over the patty. Top with onions and jalapeño slices, then add the top bun. Serve warm.
  • Enjoy!
