These zesty Cajun burgers are packed with flavor and topped with a spicy mayo, making them a perfect choice for your next backyard barbecue.
Ingredients
1 pound ground sirloin
1 medium onion
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
1 medium jalapeño
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
4 slices cheese slices
1/2 cup mayonnaise
4 pieces burger buns
4 leaves lettuce
1 large tomato
Method
Preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, blend mayonnaise with a teaspoon of Cajun spice for a flavorful zesty mayo and set it aside.
In a large bowl, mix together ground sirloin, diced onion, the rest of the Cajun seasoning, minced jalapeño, garlic, and Worcestershire sauce. Shape the mixture into four equal-sized balls and flatten them into patties.
Place the patties on the grill and cook them for about 5 minutes on each side, ensuring they are no longer pink in the center. During the last couple of minutes, add a slice of cheese to each patty. Use a meat thermometer to check that they reach an internal temperature of at least 160°F (70°C).
Spread the zesty mayo on the burger buns, add the cooked patties, and top with fresh lettuce and tomato slices.
