Ingredients

• 3 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 3/4 cup shredded spicy cheese, such as chipotle Cheddar or pepper Jack
• 1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
• 1 lb. ground sirloin
• 1/8 tsp kosher salt
• 4 burger buns
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• Lettuce, tomato and onion, for serving

Directions

1. Preheat grill to medium-high.

2. Combine cream cheese, shredded cheese and jalapeno in a medium bowl, stirring and mashing with a fork. Divide the mixture into 4 portions and form each into a 3-inch disk. Form sirloin into 4 patties. Season with salt.

3. Grill the burgers until almost done, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Place a cheese disk on each and continue cooking until cooked to your liking and the cheese starts to melt, 1 to 2 minutes more. During the last few minutes, toast buns on the grill.

4. Top each burger with 1 tbsp ketchup and serve on the buns with lettuce, tomato and onion.
