Hello, Taco Tuesday enthusiasts! Summer is in full swing, and that means it’s BBQ season. But why settle for the usual burger when you can take your BBQ game to the next level with grilled burger tacos? Imagine all the juicy goodness of a burger, but with a fun taco twist. Let’s fire up the grill and get started on this summer delight!

Ingredients
For your grilled burger tacos, you’ll need:

  • 1 lb ground beef (or your preferred burger meat)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • Shredded lettuce
  • Diced tomatoes
  • Shredded cheese (cheddar or your favorite blend)
  • Sliced pickles
  • Diced onions
  • Ketchup, mustard, and mayo (or your favorite burger sauces)
  • Optional: Jalapeños for a spicy kick


Instructions

  • Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high. Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled.
  • Prepare the Burger Patties: Form the ground beef into four equal patties. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Grill the Patties: Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Once done, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
  • Warm the Tortillas: While the patties are resting, place the flour tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side, just until they’re warm and slightly charred.
  • Assemble the Tacos: Place a grilled burger patty in the center of each tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, pickles, and onions. Add your favorite sauces and any optional toppings like jalapeños.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Fold the tortillas around the burger patties and dig in!

Why You’ll Love It
