Well I made three different type of stuff burgers today. One stuffed with caramelised onions and garlic, I also added a bit of cheese in the pocket of the burger. The other burger I stuffed with cheese and home made salsa. Finally the third burger just with plain old cheese!!

Here's the Salsa recipe I used: (Thanks to Antony Falbo for sharing this great recipe!)

Ingredients:

• 4 cans of petite diced tomatoes
• Chopped red chilies to taste
• 1 small can of diced green chilies
• 1 small can of tomato paste
• 1 Serrano pepper - sliced thinly (optional) I use what I have or none
• 1 bunch of cilantro
• Juice from 4 limes or use store purchased limed juice
• 1 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
• 1/2 lg. sweet. onion
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Red pepper flakes to taste

Directions:

*put in the blender then put in the refrigerator for 1hr before serving

P.S. This salsa is pretty amazing with appetisers during football games!

OK now back to the stuff burgers! When done building and stuffing your burgers put them in refrigerator for 30-45 minutes so the hamburgers don't fall apart during cooking.

Meanwhile I preheat my Big Green Egg BBQ with my Grillgrates to 450 degree F.

I then cook my burgers till the internal temp reaches 160 degree F. I always check the internal temp of my burgers with a Thermalpen thermometer!

I also grilled my buns by basting them with molten butter first then cook them for about 2 minutes!

Bonne appetite!!

You can get the Stufz burger press from Grillgrates or directly from Stufz

Cheers!
