This didn't win us over. I was looking forward to this being amazing. I personally think that there was just to much going on with this to make it a good burger. If this were a meatloaf it would have been wonderful.

This was good. If we make again, we will cut the amount of paprika in the sauce in half - it was way too paprika-y for us. The burgers themselves were delicious - I took the advice of another reviewer and added an egg to the meat mixture. It was very flavorful but not too spicy for our 4- and 2- year old children.

Followed the recipe minus the saffron and manchego cheese. Couldn't find them in two local grocery stores. In place, used a dash of caynenne pepper, and 1/4 slice of gouda cheese. Used mini-wheat buns, buttered and toasted in the oven at 350. Definitely too much sauce, but tasted so yummy, would go great with fries!

Great tasting burgers. First time we made these they were a bit crumbly on the pitt. The 2nd time however, we added an egg to the meat mixture and they came out perfectly shaped and stayed together. No crumbly pieces. We'll be making these again.

I loved these! These were the first burgers I've ever made perfectly! I had to do what another user did, I couldn't find chorizo in the store, so I used hot sausage, wonderful!

The burgers turned out a little dry for me. (Used George Foreman Grill) Next time I am going to add some sauteed onion to the meat mix (husbands suggestion) and some type of sauce to give it some moisture. Also there was way too much sauce, it was very good though. Also used cheddar and added lettuce and tomato. Will definitley try again and recommend.

Burgers are very flavorful, but the recipe makes a lot of sauce. I will use only about half the recipe next time as I have so much left over. Still, the many steps are worth it, as the burgers are yummy.

Very good! Lots of steps, but well, well worth it! My picky 3 kids ate it all up! Could not find saffron or cheese, but used sharp cheddar as another reviewer suggested. Also used ground round as beef.

Ok, I made a couple of changes: I didn't have any saffron, and wasn't going to buy it just for this recipe. I used regular paprika, and I used Swiss cheese as that's what I had on hand. I also just did the burgers on the Foreman grill. They were absolutely delicious, and the sauce was especially fantastic. Thanks for an awesome recipe, BurgerBelly!

the chorizo did make the burgers a bit too heavy for my taste. perhaps i would make a homemade chorizo next time. also, it was hard to mix the two. maybe one would need a food processor to really mix it. as for the sauce, it was good, there was just too much of it. next time i would omit the pureed onions and instead of a cup( i used a half and it was still too much) just use a couple table spoons. the carmelized onions were awesome, but they too were too much. next time i'd probably just use one or two instead of three. for me, the highlight of the whole burger was the carmelized onions. it will be a staple on all my burgers!

These were great! I followed the recipe exactly and my husband loved them. I used 96% lean hereford sirloin and the burgers were not to greasy and not to dry. This will be a regular at our hous. The red pepper sauce is good used as a dip too.

Don't be afraid of the spicy chorizo - the burgers aren't! I was skeptical about the whole recipe, but wanted to try something new, so I went for it and was pleasantly suprized. And the onions sauteed with brown sugar, mmm! I couldn't find the cheese, so just used sharp cheddar (not sure if it's even close, but an old stand-by for burgers at our house) and can't complain. Even my picky husband liked them, AND the sauce!!!

This was so good. I used half the chorizo than what was called for. My mistake was not making sure the patties were larger than the buns before cooking. That part is important. The sauce was the best part!

I recently tried chorizo and fell in love with it and coudn't wait to try this recipe. Unfortunately, the grocers must be conspiring against me, as not one of them sold chorizo this week, so I made this with Hot Italian Sausage. It was wonderful, the sauce fabulous and versatile (I am already thinking of other things to use the sauce on) Everyone liked. Thanks!
