Leaf lettuce

3 sliced Roma tomatoes

Flavored mayonnaise

Directions:

1. Preheat flat grill pan to medium-high heat or use an indoor griddle.

2. In a medium-sized bowl, mix the ground pork, chorizo, cheese, shallot, garlic and salt and pepper. Form the mixture into small equal-sized slider patties. Cook the burgers for 4 minutes on each side.

3. Serve on split rolls and top with bacon, lettuce, tomato and flavored mayonnaise.

Apron Strings Note: You can purchase flavored mayonnaise but if you want to make your own simply combine ¼ c. mayonnaise, 1 Tbsp. smoked paprika and 1 tsp. hot sauce and mix well. Do this the day before so the flavors can meld.
