We’ve made burgers before, but this one is special. It’s a ground pork patty sitting happily on a delicious spread of jalapeño guacamole and covered with the gooey goodness of pepperjack cheese. Guacamole makes everything better, don’t you agree?

  • If using ground turkey, follow same instructions as ground pork in Steps 1 and 4, cooking until turkey reaches minimum internal temperature, 6-8 minutes per side.

  • If using Impossible burger, follow same instructions as ground pork in Steps 1 and 4, cooking until burger is heated through, 4-6 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Slice potatoes into 1/4"-thick rounds.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.

    In a mixing bowl, thoroughly combine ground pork, white portions of green onions, chipotle seasoning (use less if spice-averse), garlic salt, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Form mixture into two equally-sized patties, about 5" in diameter.

  2. 2

    Roast the Fries

    Spread potatoes into an even layer on prepared baking sheet.

    Top with 1 tsp. olive oil and half the buttermilk-dill seasoning (reserve remaining for crema). Massage oil and seasoning into potatoes.

    Roast in hot oven until golden brown, 18-22 minutes, flipping halfway through.

    While fries roast, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat.

    Add buns, cut side down, to hot, dry pan and toast until golden brown, 30-60 seconds.

    Transfer buns to a plate. Keep pan over medium heat.

  4. 4

    Cook the Burgers

    Add 1 tsp. olive oil and patties to hot pan. Cook until lightly charred and patties reach a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes per side.

    Top with cheese and cover pan. Remove from burner and let cheese melt, 4-5 minutes.

    While patties cook and rest, continue recipe.

  5. 5

    Make Crema and Finish Dish

    In another mixing bowl, combine sour cream and remaining buttermilk-dill seasoning.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping bottom bun with guacamole (to taste), patty, green portions of green onions, and top bun. Serve crema on the side for dipping fries. Bon appétit!
