Ingredients
- 2 diced green chiles 4-ounce cans, divided
- ½ tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lime juice freshly squeezed
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 ounces Monterey jack cheese cut into tiny cubes, plus more for topping
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon cumin ground
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- salt to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- 4 lices Bacon
- 4 pretzel slider buns toasted, for serving, split
- lettuce for serving

Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine 1 1/2 cans green chiles, honey and lime juice; set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, monterey jack cheese, garlic, cumin, onion powder, salt and pepper, to taste. Divide the ground beef mixture into 4 balls; press each lightly to form 1/4-inch-thick patties.
- Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving the bacon fat.
- Add patties to the skillet and cook until browned and cooked through to medium rare, about 3-4 minutes per side, flipping only once. In the last minute of cooking, top each patty with additional monterey jack cheese, covering to melt.
- Serve burgers on rolls with bacon, green chili sauce, lettuce and tomatoes.
