Tasty burgers are everywhere, and not just ground beef; no, we've seen things that are both impossible and beyond the last few years on the burger front. Well, this sausage wasn't created in a lab, but this burger was created with maximum flavor in mind. Not only is there the slightly spicy delight of sausage, but a sweet and smoky relish with chipotle and peppers, and a nice slice of gooey cheese. Created in our test kitchen, just right for your plate.
