JAMAICAN JERK BURGERS WITH ORANGE-CHIPOTLE MAYONNAISE
Orange-chipotle mayonnaise
1 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon minced canned chipotle chilies

Jerk sauce
1 bunch green onions, coarsely chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
4 small habañero chilis
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon ground allspice
2 pounds ground beef (15% fat)

 

For orange-chipotle mayonnaise:
Mix all ingredients in small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
For jerk sauce:
Finely chop first 4 ingredients in processor.
Add sugar, vegetable oil, soy sauce, and allspice; process until almost smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Shape ground beef into six 1/2- to 3/4-inch-thick patties; place in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish.
Pour half of the jerk sauce over patties and turn to coat; let stand 20 minutes.
Sprinkle patties with salt and pepper. Grill to desired doneness, brushing occasionally with remaining jerk sauce, about 4 minutes per side for medium.

Spread Orange-chipotle mayonnaise sauce on  buns. Add onion slices, tomato slices, and lettuce as desired.

One of our favorite recipes is Jerk Chicken which features Habenero Peppers.  As they are sometimes hard to find, Carrie grew a Habenero Pepper plant for me.  Now I have an abundance of Habeneros and was looking for additional ways to use them.  I found this tasty burger recipe on Epicurious.com.
