Tex Mex Burgers with Guacamole

August 14, 2020 · Leave a Comment

Guacamole Burger

My favorite international food by far, is Mexican. The cheese, the jalapenos, the mariachis… its pretty amazing. So, of course, the idea of a burger inspired by some of my fav Mexican flavors sounded like a great match. The guacamole added to the burger gives it a clean, fresh taste and is a perfect balance to the spiciness and heat of the burger.

Tex Mex Burgers with Guacamole

Man cannot live by pork chop alone. Every now and then you must sauce it up a bit. This smokey green sauce blends great with a pork chop. The combination of roasted poblano peppers, tomatillos and garlic make a savory sauce. This might also make a great base for a roasted corn and black bean salsa, which I might have to try some day soon. I'll let you know when I do. It's best to cook this recipe on a charcoal grill, so that the smokey flavor gets infused into the peppers and tomatillos and a side of mushrooms
