Came up with this idea when I had some ground beef and chorizo that needed to get cleared out of the fridge.

  • 1 lb 85/15 ground beef

  • 1 lb chorizo, loose sausage style (closest approximation is Botto’s links, casing removed)

  • Smoked gouda slices from Aldi (Happy Farms)

  • Aldi keto buns (L’Oven Fresh)

  • Dill pickle chips

  1. Mix both meats together until evenly distributed, form into 1/4 lb patties.

  2. Cook the burgers til med-well or 140-145° (the fat in the chorizo will keep them from getting dry).

  3. Melt cheese slices over burgers after the last flip.

All I added were pickles for toppings, but feel free to add whatever and adjust accordingly. I’m really looking forward to tomato season to kick off in earnest so I can add some thick slices.

No insta or blog to promote, just pleased with how this came out!

ETA: the carb count comes to about 3.7 with pickle chips, but I can’t edit the title.
