Ingredients

  • ¾ lb lean ground beef
  • ¾ lb ground pork
  • 1 teaspoon fresh orange zest
  • 1 tsp fresh lime zest
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 8 slices thin smoked ham
  • 4 slices swiss cheese
  • 3 tablespoon mayo
  • 2 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 16 dill pickle slices
  • 4 hamburger buns (I suggest a sturdy bun because this is a hearty burger)

Instructions

  • Pre-heat grill to medium heat. Mix the mayo and mustard together and set aside.
  • Add beef, pork, zest, and seasoning to a medium bowl. Mix by hand until everything is evenly mixed.
  • Pat four burgers. Place burgers on the grill and grill 5 minutes per side. Once burger temperature has reached 150°F. Place ham and cheese on the burger. Allow the cheese to melt and burger to reach 160°F.
  • Remove burgers from grill. Spread the mayo/mustard sauce evenly on all burger buns. Add pickles, and place burgers on the buns.
  • Enjoy!
