Grilled Chipotle BLT Cheeseburgers
Description
Grilled Chipotle BLT Cheeseburgers begin with ground chuck patties enhanced with lime juice and simply seasoned with salt and black pepper. While grilling the patties over high heat, slices of havarti cheese are placed atop to melt during the final minutes. Crispy cooked bacon, fresh lettuce, and sliced tomato complete the burger's toppings.
The chipotle mayonnaise is made by mixing mayonnaise with chipotle powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and lime juice, delivering a smoky heat that complements the bacon and beef. Brioche buns provide a soft, slightly sweet base that can be optionally toasted on the grill for added texture.
Preparing all toppings before cooking helps streamline assembly. The chipotle mayo can be made in advance and stored refrigerated for use on other dishes such as tacos or as a dipping sauce. Toasting buns briefly on the grill alongside the burgers adds a slight crunch while retaining softness within.
