Fody's Jalapeño Popper Burgers

1. To start your homemade jalapeño popper burgers, prepare the filling. In a medium mixing bowl, mix together cream cheese, cheddar cheese, diced jalapeños, salt & pepper. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add ground beef, cayenne pepper and Fody’s Steak Seasoning, mixing to combine.
3. In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat Fody’s Shallot Infused Olive Oil until just shimmering, then add diced scallions, sauteeing until tender. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon and add to beef mixture, folding in to combine.
4. Form the beef mixture into 8 large, thin patties. Spoon ¼ of the cream cheese mixture on top of 4 of the patties, then place the empty patties on top. Pinch edges to seal the burger, reshaping the patties into a disk if necessary. 
5. Chill the burgers in the fridge for 4 hours and up to overnight.
6. When you’re ready to cook your homemade jalapeño popper patties, re-heat the grill to medium high heat. Once the grill is preheated, place the patties on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes on each side for medium-medium well. 
7. Serve your homemade jalapeño popper patties on gluten free burger buns slathered with Fody’s Original Ketchup and topped with lettuce.
