What is ortega burger

Who can blame them though?? Their heat level is super manageable and you still get that distinct chile flavor without all the sweat and burning tongue. So when I started planning a Father's Day recipe, my mind instantly went back to my Pop and his home state's favorite ingredient.

Thus, the Ortega Burger. You can totally find these on the menu at a few burger joints here in Southern California, but to be honest they always leave me feeling underwhelmed. So in creating this recipe, I wanted to create the perfect Ortega Burger in honor of my Pop.

Now, when you are making a Father's Day meal, the last thing on your mind should be any of the following words: clean, dainty, healthy and light. Even if Dad is watching his belt line, he deserves to have a meal worthy of a hero. Instead of keeping it light, I want you to focus on these words when making this burger fit for a king: messy, hearty, fatty, and indulgent. Dad will absolutely thank the Flavor Gods on Father's Day. And guess what? You get to tell him that YOU made these gourmet puppies.

Points, for sure. Let's make this Father's Day all about the one invincible man in your life and big bold flavors that he'll love. Remind him just how much you love and appreciate all he does for you and your family. Tell him you love him. And we all know the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

Spend a little time in the kitchen or by the grill and show him just how important he is. Prep Time: 15 minutes. Cooke Time: minutes. Total Time: 25 minutes. Servings: 4 burgers. Remove ground beef from fridge and let sit on the counter until it reaches room temp This step is imperative for a moist burger patty. If using pre-frozen patties it's better with fresh ground beef, but I understand : do NOT let sit; you should grill those frozen.

Remove chilis from can, rinse and pat dry completely. Let sit on paper towel to remove excess liquid. Taste the sauce and make sure the heat level is manageable for you. If too hot, add more mayo and sour cream 1 Tablespoon at a time. Cover the sauce and place in the fridge to let it set for a little bit. I always count it as a successful grilling experience when I do not light any houses on fire. This looks so delicious…you were doing some serious grilling in that one picture! Two thumbs up for awesomeness!

I make something similar to this, but I add caramelized onions, guacamole and make the mayo into chipotle mayo by mixing it with a bit of pureed canned chipotle. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed. Jump to Recipe. Continue to Content.
