Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 1/2 pounds ground chuck
- 3 serrano peppers
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon parsley flakes
- 8 ounces Castello Saga Blue Brie cheese
- Toppings of your choice
- Buns (we used pretzel buns)
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Place the serrano peppers on the grill grate and cook until the skin is completely blackened, turning occasionally.
- Remove the peppers from the grill and run them under cool water to remove the charred skin. Remove the stems and seeds from the peppers, then chop them finely.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, chopped serrano peppers, garlic powder, and parsley flakes. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
- Divide the meat mixture into equal portions and form into thin patties.
- Cut the Castello Saga Blue Brie cheese into small cubes. Place a few cubes of cheese in the center of half of the patties.
- Top each cheese-filled patty with another patty, pressing the edges together to seal and form a stuffed burger.
- Place the stuffed burgers on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F and the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Remove the burgers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
- Serve the burgers on buns with your choice of toppings.
Notes
For a milder heat, use fewer serrano peppers or substitute with milder peppers. Serve with sides like potato salad or grilled corn. Pretzel buns add a unique flavor and texture, but any bun will work. Leftover cheese can be spread on warm pretzel buns for a delicious snack.
