Stuffed Chipotle Burgers

Stuffed beef burgers are a fun, flavorful switch from regular grilled burgers-and they're easy to put together. To make two burgers, as here, simply divide the total amount of meat into four equal patties. Top two with the stuffing, then place the remaining two patties on top and crimp together. That's it - ready to cook.

Chipotle Mayonnaise

1 teaspoon Chipotle Rub

1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise

1/4 cup low-fat plain yogurt

Burgers
1 -4-ounce block feta cheese

2 pounds 90% lean ground beef

1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt

2 tablespoons Chipotle Rub

8 whole wheat buns

Toppings such as lettuce leaves and tomato slices (optional)

Prepare grill for direct cooking over medium coals. For chipotle mayonnaise, combine mayonnaise, yogurt and rub in Prep Bowl using Skinny Scraper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

For burgers, cut cheese into eight 1/4-inch-thick squares using Utility Knife; set aside. Place ground beef, yogurt and rub into Classic Batter Bowl; mix gently but thoroughly. Divide meat mixture into 8 equal portions. Place 1 cheese square into each meat portion and form patty around cheese, sealing edges so cheese is no longer visible.

Grill, covered, 18-20 minutes or until Pocket Thermometer registers 155°F, turning once with BBQ Turner. Spread mayonnaise over buns using Small Spreader; place burgers into buns. Top with lettuce and tomato slices, if desired.

Yield: 8 burgers

Cook's Tip: To bring your burgers indoors, heat Grill Pan over medium heat 5 minutes. Spray Grill Pan with vegetable oil using Kitchen Spritzer and cook burgers as recipe directs.

Feta cheese is a firm, crumbly white cheese with a salty, slightly acidic flavor. It is sold in blocks packed in a whey brine and can be found in the deli or gourmet cheese section of most grocery stores. Be sure to choose plain, unseasoned feta for this recipe.
