Directions

  1. In a large bowl, thoroughly mix the hamburger meat and the ground sausage meat together.
  2. Add Worstershire sauce, hot sauce, jalapenos and plenty of salt and pepper and mix together.
  3. Begin to form patties. In the center of the patty, place a handful of the crumbled cheddar cheese and add more meat on the top of the patty in order that the cheese does not “leak” when cooking the patty. The meat should completely surround the cheese.
  4. After all the patties are made, put them in the refrigerator for at least a half an hour. (Depending upon how thick/thin or large/small you make the patties, this recipe should accommodate between 8 to 12 people).
  5. Start up the grill and let the burgers sizzle until they are done (preferably medium to medium well).
