Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20)
  • 8 ounces choirizo
  • 1/2 onion rough diced
  • 1/4 pound pepper jack cheese
  • pico de gallo
  • avocado mashed
  • bread rolls
  • oil/salt/pepper

Instructions

  • Set up griddle/flattop for medium high heat.
  • Once preheated, spread out a thin layer of oil and then place the ground beef, chorizo and onions on the griddle. Season with salt and pepper.
  • After about 2 minutes the food should start caramelizing. Then, using a spatula, break up the beef and chorizo and start combining together with the onions. Keep breaking up large pieces and continue cooking.
  • Once the beef and chorizo is cooked most of the way through, push the beef, chorizo and onions close together and layer on the cheese. Once the cheese starts to melt, mix in with the meat/onion mixture until well combined.
  • Split the bread and toast the inside using the oil released from the meat for extra flavor.
  • Once toasted, assemble the sandwich with the mashed avocado, chopped meat/cheese mixture and top with pico de gallo.
