Texas Beer Cheese Sauce
Preparation
-
Step 1
Preheat gas or charcoal grill to 400°F. The fire should be quite hot; you should barely be able to hold your hand 3-4 inches over the grates. After the coals are gray, spray grates with cooking spray or brush with oil to help keep burgers from sticking. Shape into eight ¾-inch thick patties. Season each side with salt and pepper. Make a small indention in the center of the burger with your thumb.
-
Step 2
Place burgers on oiled grates and grill for approximately 4 minutes per side for rare, and another minute per side for each increasing stage of doneness.
-
Step 3
Drizzle each side of onion slices with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Grill 5-7 minutes on each side or until onion is tender and has caramelized.
-
Step 4
Place burgers in buns and add grilled onion slice, lettuce and tomato. Drizzle 2 Tbsp. Beer Cheese Sauce on each burger. Evenly top with pickled jalapeno peppers.
