• Cooking Time: 10 to 15 minutes
• Servings: 4
• Preparation Time: .5 hour
• Patties
• 1 lb. Ground Meat
• 1T Fresh Garlic
• 1T Salt
• 1T Black Pepper
• 1 t. Cayenne Pepper or any red pepper
• 1 t. Basil
• ½ t. Ground Cumin
• 1 t. Ground Cilantro – or fresh cilantro to taste

1. Directions for Patties:
2. Make very large, very thin patties – easiest if you press them between two pieces of wax paper. Set aside.
4. Directions for Filling:
5. 1 Cup Grated Cheddar Cheese – or Mexican Melting Cheese
6. 1 Cup finely Chopped Onion
7. 1 cup Refried Beans
8. Jalapeño finely chopped – as much as you like. I only use about ¼ of one.
10. On only one side of patty, spread a thin coating of refried beans, add cheddar cheese, onions and jalapeños - up to about ½ inch from edge of patty – fold in half. Pinch all the edges together. Grill and serve on a four tortilla with lettuce and tomatoes. Taco sauce, Guacamole and Sour Cream optional.

My Dad used to make all kinds of different stuffed burgers on the grill. My daughter and I decided to get creative one day and came up with this recipe. It's still a family favorite. Submitted by: "Tess Bentayou"
