These spicy burgers are just as delicious and satisfying as any classic burger with the added Mexican flavor of Pico de Gallo, tortilla chips, and avocado.
Jack’s Gourmet produces a nitrate-free line of flavored sausage patties, which we used in this recipe. The patties are available in the freezer section of your local supermarket and at www.jacksgourmetkosher.com.

Ingredients
- Spicy Mexican-Style Chorizo Beef Sausage Patties
- Pico de Gallo
- Avocado
- Tortilla chips
- Bun
Instructions
- Heat grill or pan to high heat.
- For the juiciest burger, skip extra lean ground beef and go for beef with at least 15% fat content.
- Gently form burger; being too rough with the meat will toughen the burger.
- Place on oiled pan or grill.
- Now leave it alone and allow the burger and grill to work their magic.
- Only flip once, when you see brownness developing on the sides of the burger and juices starting to sizzle on the top of the burger.
- While the burger is grilling: do not touch the burger or flatten the burger with a spatula while it is searing. This will only squeeze out the natural juices so crucial to a juicy center.
- Let the burger rest for a minute or so before putting on bun. Grill bun while burger rests.
- Place all ingredients in layers on bun. Serve immediately.
- Tip: Try this recipe with our homemade Pico de Gallo.
