Servings: persons

½ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon ketchup
½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon prepared chili powder
¼ teaspoon dried chipotle powder
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 14 lbs ground chuck (80% lean)
6 ounces cured chorizo sausage, finely chopped (not fresh)
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 large beefsteak tomato, cut crosswise into 4 slices
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 thin slices sharp cheddar cheese
4 hamburger buns, split
4 leaves lettuce

1
Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium-high heat (400 to 500F).
2
In a small bowl whisk the sauce ingredients.
3
In a medium bowl gently mix the patty ingredients.
4
With wet hands, form four patties of equal size, each about 3/4 inch thick.
5
Dont compact the meat too much or the patties will be tough.
6
With your thumb or the back of a spoon, make a shallow indentation about 1 inch wide in the center of each patty.
7
This will help the patties cook evenly and prevent them from puffing on the grill.
8
Brush the tomato slices on both sides with the oil.
9
Brush the cooking grates clean.
10
Grill the patties over direct medium-high heat, with the lid closed, until they are cooked to medium doneness, 8 to 10 minutes, turning once when the patties release easily from the grate without sticking.
11
During the last 4 minutes of grilling time, grill the tomato slices over direct medium-high heat until warmed through and tender, turning once.
12
During the last minute of grilling time, place a slice of cheese on each patty to melt and toast the buns, cut side down, over direct heat.
13
Build each burger on a toasted bun with a patty, lettuce, grilled tomato, and sauce.
14
Serve warm.
