Ingredients

• 1 lb. ground beef
• Salt and pepper
• 1 lb. fresh Mexican chorizo, casings removed
• 1 tbsp. canola oil
• 8 oz. Chihuahua cheese, grated
• 8 oz. white American cheese, grated
• 1 tbsp. cornstarch
• 1/3 to 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1 tsp each granulated garlic, granulated onion and ground cumin
• 4 oz. can diced green chiles, drained
• 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
• 2 scallions, chopped
• 6 potato rolls
• Fixings:
• Bread and butter pickle slices
• Yellow mustard
• Chopped iceberg
• Corn tortilla chips
• Pickled jalapeno slices

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, season the beef with salt and pepper. Mix in the chorizo. Form into 6 patties. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add the oil. Add the patties. Cook, turning occasionally, until cooked through, about 8 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, toss the grated cheeses and cornstarch. Heat over medium. As the cheeses begin to melt, whisk in the milk. Season with the granulated garlic, granulated onion and cumin. Stir in the chiles, cilantro, and scallions into the queso.

3. Build the burgers with the roll bottoms, the pickles, mustard, lettuce, patties, queso, tortilla chips, pickled jalapenos, and the roll tops.
