Thanks to Sherry Martin, we've got a new name for these mouthwatering burgers. Say hello to the Test Kitchen's Black Jack Burgers! Now, fire up that grill and enjoy.
What You'll Need
- 2 1/2 pounds ground beef
- 1 envelope (from a 2.4-ounce box) dry onion soup mix
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup chili sauce
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 slices pepper Jack cheese
What to Do
-
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
-
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients except cheese; mix well. Divide mixture into 8 equal patties.
- Grill patties 8 to 12 minutes for medium, or until desired doneness beyond that, turning them halfway through grilling. Place a slice of cheese on each burger and cook 1 to 2 additional minutes, or until cheese is melted.
Note
-
Serve on your favorite hamburger buns with your favorite condiments.

- "The Southwest-Satisfaction Grill Burger" - Having been born & raised 20 miles Southeast of San Diego, my whole family loves spicy foods. Instead of, say, Heinz chili sauce, I used a mixture of Sriracha & Organicville Chili Sauce, a very tasty unique blend that works well for shrimp cocktails too. Also, I used beef broth instead of water. With those changes, we all said, with a BIG SMILE, "Ooooh, it's Sooooo Good!" :-) Thanks for the great idea for making a super-burger!
