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.

Love the idea... I seen that there were some rewiews that said that the burger fell apart during cooking so I added egg... But this didn't help. As I said great idea but it didn't work for me. :)

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!

Yum - I omitted the ranch dressing (not my thing, but I kept the rest of the pepper mixture...makes a nice dressing) and substituted ground chuck since Sirloin is a bit to lean to make juicy burgers, but this was delish!

Used ground turkey and chicken chorizo from Trader Joes. Came out yummy and healthier!

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!

Horrible fell apart on the grill if it needs eggs or something to hold it together it should be listed in the recipe

This was pretty good. I did half the recipe for the sauce and still had extra. I wasnt sure if this was mexican chorizo, but it was what I had so I used it. I also did not like the brown sugar with the onions, it was way to sweet for me. Next time I would leave the brown sugar out. Thanks for sharing the recipe! I will make it again with a few changes.
