This gourmet burger recipe layers sweet heat, creamy tang, and savory depth. It begins with caramelized onions, gently cooked in canola oil and butter, with a dash of salt and sugar to coax out their natural sweetness and golden richness.

The burger patties are made from 1 lb. of ground beef, seasoned with salt and pepper, and infused with jalapeño pepper jelly for a sweet-spicy kick that sets these burgers apart. They're served on toasted hamburger buns, topped with crumbled Gorgonzola cheese for a bold, creamy contrast. For extra fire, thinly sliced jalapeño peppers can be added as an optional garnish.

Perfect for a weekend cookout or a cozy indulgence, these burgers deliver a punch of flavor in every bite.
