Chorizo Cheese Burger with Guacamole

Ingredients:
For the burgers:
*3/4 lb ground beef
*1/2 lb Mexican Chorizo; casings removed
*Worcestershire sauce about 2 TBS or more to taste
*onion powder about 2 tsp or more to taste
*garlic powder about 2 tsp or more to taste
*coarse salt
For the guacamole:
*1 Avocado
*juice of 1 lime or more to taste
*onion powder; to taste
*garlic powder; to taste
*dried cilantro or fresh; I only had dried on hand; to taste
*salt about 1/8 tsp or more to taste
Directions:
Cut the avocado and scoop out the pulp into a bowl. With a fork or the back of a spoon, smash the pulp until somewhat smooth. Add onion powder, garlic powder, lime juice, cilantro and salt; mix well. Place a piece of plastic wrap on to the guacamole and covering the bowl; set aside.
Place ground beef and chorizo in a bowl. Add Worcestershire sauce, onion and garlic powder. Mix until blended.
Form in to patties, making an indentation in the middle, this keeps the patties from swelling during cooking.
Heat a cast iron skillet to medium high heat. Salt both sides of patties and place into the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes or until a crust forms on the bottom. Turn over and cook for another 5 minutes. Place cheese slices over patties and cover skillet. Continue cooking for about 1 minute or until cheese melts.
Place on desired hamburger buns. Spread the guacamole on top of the patty and top with desired toppings and serve.
Enjoy!
Oh yes!!!! I never thought about chorizo mixed with hamburgers for a sandwich! Not crazy about guacamole but definitely want to try the burger! Thanks for a great idea.

Well I made it today! Like everything I make, I changed the ingredients but my gosh was it good! I made 4#’s of total meat and froze the patties (we split one burger to taste it), Thank you so much for the inspiration I would never have thought of this one had I not read your blog!

I’m so glad you liked it! I always like to hear when someone has made one of my recipes. I always say, make it your own. I’m so happy it inspired you. I’m the same way, I see a recipe and put my own spin on it. Thanks so much for letting me know.
