This is one of the first recipes that Renae and Anna have developed together. We each have had ideas and been able to come up with something on our own, but we sat down one day in the summer and fused two favorite things together. This is a spin on a classic cheeseburger. With a few added spices and flavors this burger is easily a favorite recipe of ours. Top it off with pepperjack cheese, fresh pico de gallo, and chipotle mayo and you have one of the most flavorful cheeseburgers you will ever have.
