Crunchy Birria Burger

Cook Time 30 Minutes

Servings 4 burgers

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • Kosher salt, for seasoning
  • 8 Oaxaca cheese, shredded by hand
  • 1 pound cooked birria, local is best but many grocery stores sell this too
  • 2 cups birria cooking liquid aka consomme
  • 4 burger buns
  • Handful of corn tortilla chips
  • 1/2 cup salsa verde

Divide the beef into 4 portions. Form the beef into loosely packed rounds — like a meatball. Set aside while you prep the grill.

 

Heat a grill to two-zone cooking. Toast the burger buns over high heat and then set aside.

 

Heat a large griddle or skillet over direct heat. Add four mounds of Oaxaca cheese and as it begins to melt, top each with the birria. Top with about 2 tablespoons of consomme and cook until the cheese is melted and crispy on the bottom. Remove from the pan and keep warm while you cook the burger patties.

 

Working in batches of two, add two beef rounds to the skillet at a time – season each with salt. Let the burger balls cook until some fat pools at the bottom of the burger. Use a large flat spatula to press down hard on each patty for 2 minutes. The burger should be super thin and have a diameter that is at least two inches wider than the bun (if your pan is too small you may only be able to do one at a time).

 

When the juices in the middle of the burger start to bubble up, flip the burger. Cook another 2 to 3 minutes then top each patty with Oaxaca cheese and consomme, cook until melted.

 

Build the burgers by topping the bottom bun with a burger patty, then the cheese skirted birria, a few chips and some salsa verde before topping with the top bun.

Cook Time 30 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 pound flank steak
  • Salt Pepper + Chocolate Chile
  • 8 tablespoons 1 stick butter
  • 8 tablespoons flour
  • 1 12-ounce can Pabst Blue Ribbon
  • Kosher salt for seasoning
  • Black pepper for seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 pound shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 3 whole chipotles in adobe chopped
  • Hot sauce
  • 1 bunch green onions
  • 24 ounces sturdy tortilla chips
  • Pico de gallo

Instructions

  • Season the flank steaks on all sides with the Salt Pepper + Chocolate Chiles seasoning on all sides. Set aside for at least 30 minutes while you prepare the cheese sauce and the grill.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the flour and whisk to combine. Cook until the flour smells like pancakes. Add in the PBR and whisk to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer, adding salt, pepper, garlic, and onion powder as it cooks. Once the sauce base has come to a rapid simmer and thickened, turn off the heat. Add the cheese, paprika, and chipotles. You can use an immersion blender to make this sauce super smooth if desired. Then move the sauce to a thermos to keep warm.
  • Heat a grill for high direct heat. Grill the flank steak over direct heat for 5 to 6 minutes per side. Remove from the heat and rest for 10 minutes before slicing into bite sized pieces against the grain.
  • Build the nachos by spreading the tortilla chips out into a single layer on a plate. Pour on the cheese sauce and top the nachos with the flank steak, green onions, and pico de gallo.

Add a spoonful of red sauce atop the provolone, Add chicken to each sandwich, top with another spoonful of red sauce and finally mozzarella cheese. Bake the sandwiches for about 8 minutes in the hot oven.

Working in batches of two, add two beef rounds to the skillet at a time – season each with salt. Let the burger balls cook until some fat pools at the bottom of the burger. Use a large flat spatula to press down hard on each patty for 2 minutes. The burger should be super thin and have a diameter that is at least two inches wider than the bun (if your pan is too small you may only be able to do one at a time).

 

When the juices in the middle of the burger start to bubble up, flip the burger. Cook another 2 to 3 minutes then top each patty with Oaxaca cheese and consomme, cook until melted.

 

Build the burgers by topping the bottom bun with a burger patty, then the cheese skirted birria, a few chips and some salsa verde before topping with the top bun.
