Stuffed Pepper Burgers
Stuffed Pepper Burgers will take burger night to a new level of deliciousness! Sausage and cheese stuffed peppers are grilled along side ground beef patties and piled high onto buns and drizzled with homemade bbq sauce. This is an epic burger that you must try!
Our garden is producing lots of banana peppers this year and we love stuffing them with sausage and cheese. It is a delicious flavor combination especially when you add in a bit of hickory smoke.
Burgers are on the menu at least once a week at our house and adding stuffed peppers to a grilled burger is going to be on the regular rotation with a big serving of homemade French fries and grilled corn on the cob!
We love making different kinds of burgers on the grill and these grilled mozzarella burgers are great for a quick weeknight dinner.
