The latest burgers from our burger lab are seasoned with our vibrant blend of fajita-style spices, then smashed directly in the hot pan for crispy, craggy edges and an extra-juicy finish. Add colorful toppings, like guacamole, hot sauce, and crushed blue tortilla chips for extra crunch, and make burger night an instant fiesta (in a flash!).

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Thinly slice tomato into rounds. Halve buns.

2
  • In a medium bowl, combine beef* and Fajita Spice Blend.

  • Form beef mixture into two equal-size balls (four balls for 4 servings); season all over with salt and pepper.

Cook Burgers
3
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add beef and flatten each ball with a spatula to create very thin patties. (TIP: Do so carefully; oil may splatter a bit.) Cook to desired doneness, 3-4 minutes per side. (Don’t worry if the patties aren’t perfectly round—those irregular edges will turn crispy.)

  • In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top patties with Mexican cheese blend and cover pan to melt cheese.

Finish & Serve
4
  • While patties cook, toast buns until golden brown.

  • Spread top buns with guacamole and hot sauce to taste. Place patties, tomato, and a few tortilla chips on bottom buns. Close buns.

  • Divide burgers between plates. Serve with remaining tortilla chips on the side.

The ground beef did not seem to be very good quality. There were a lot of very tough/hard pieces.
