Green Chili Burgers

• Green Chili Sauce
• 2 poblano chiles (see Recipe #) or 2 hatch chiles, grilled, peeled, seeded and chopped (see Recipe #)
• 1 medium red onion, grilled and chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, chopped
• 2 2 tablespoons oregano or 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
• salt & freshly ground black pepper
• Burgers
• 2 lbs ground chuck
• salt & freshly ground black pepper
• 8 slices monterey jack cheese or 8 slices provolone cheese
• romaine lettuce
• pickled jalapeno pepper
• sliced beefsteak tomato
• 6 hamburger buns

1. Sauce:
2. Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth and season with salt and pepper to taste. (A water if necessary to achieve the proper consistency.).
3. Burgers:
4. Heat grill to high. Form meat into 6 burgers and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill until charred on both sides and cooked to desired doneness.
5. Place 2 slices of the cheese on each burger; close the lid or tent with foil and cook until the cheese has just melted, about 1 minute.
6. Place burgers on bun and top with green chili sauce, lettuce, tomatoes and pickled jalapeno, if desired.
7. Note: Use high heat. A great tasting burger needs only to be on the grill 2 to 3 minutes on each side to arrive at a perfect medium doneness.
