“The spiral effect of sauces is easiest with condiment squirt bottles easily found at dollar stores or kitchen supply stores or on line from Amazon.com. Cut the tip a bit wide at top for easy swirls.”

Yield

Serves: 4

Preparation

Purée ingredients for the Avo-Cream Sauce in a food processor then transfer to a squeeze bottle. Rinse the processor bowl and return it to the base.
Place the chipotles, adobo sauce and ketchup in the processor and purée. Transfer to a squeeze bottle.
 

Combine beef with garlic, grated onion, salt, pepper, cumin, coriander and chili powder. Form 4 patties that are thinner at the center and thicker at the edges for even cooking.
 
Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high to high heat. Drizzle pan with oil and add patties. Cook 5 minutes, flip then top each patty with 2 slices of cheddar or Colby-Jack (layer the slices so they overlap on an angle). Top cheese with a few pickled jalapeños and a couple tablespoons of pico or salsa. Top salsa with American cheese and loosely cover pan with a foil tent to melt cheeses.
 
Place 2 leaves of lettuce on each bun bottom then top with a Queso Burger. Swirl the Avo-Cream sauce and Chipotle Ketchup on top of the burgers and serve with bun top alongside.
