Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- 1 whole anaheim
- spray
Spray the chilies on both sides and roast on the grill with the lid shut, turning, until blackened all the way around. A broiler, an open gas flame or a cast iron pan on an electric stove also work.
Charring the chilies on the grill
- mayo
- ½ tsp chipotle chili powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp cumin
- salt
- pepper
Mix a little mayo with chipotle chili powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cumin and a pinch of salt and pepper for the sauce; taste and set aside.
Southwest sauce
Kill the heat, seal the chilies in a paper bag and let them steam 15 minutes so the skin comes off.
Peel the skin off (a little black left is fine), open the chilies and remove the seeds; keep them whole for full coverage.
- ⅓ lb Angus beef
- 1 whole bun
Form a third of a pound of Angus beef into a patty a little wider than the bun, since it shrinks; season with salt, pepper and BFF.
- cheese
Add the cheese and shut the lid a couple of minutes to melt it.
Melting the cheese and building
- iceberg lettuce
Build: bottom bun with a little sauce, iceberg lettuce, the patty, the whole chili for full coverage, and the top bun spread with sauce.
