Instructions
- Mix the ground beef, ground chorizo, paprika, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Mix until just combined.
- Add the cilantro lime mayonnaise ingredients to a food processor and blend well until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Divide the beef mixture into 6 even balls. Then form the balls into patties that are approximately 4 inches wide and 1 inch thick. Place the patties in the refrigerator (covered in plastic wrap) while you preheat the grill.
- Preheat the Grill over medium high heat (approximately 450-500 degrees F). Rub oil on the grill grates to prevent the patties from sticking to the grill.
- Place the patties on the grill over direct heat. Cook for 4-8 minutes (flipping the patties halfway through the cook time) depending on how you like your burger cooked (see notes). Use an instant-read meat thermometer to make sure that the burgers are cooked to your preference. Place a piece of cheese on each burger patty for approximately 1 minutes so that it can melt.
- Place the buns on the grill and cook for 1 minute until they are browned slightly. Watch them closely so that they do not burn.
- Add the cilantro lime mayonnaise, a lettuce leaf and red onions to the bottom bun of each bun.
- Remove the beef from the grill and add them to each of the hamburger buns on top of the lettuce.
- Then top each patty with the tomatoes and avocado slices. Serve warm and enjoy!
