Grilled Pork and Chorizo Burgers with Aioli
Last updated on May 30th, 2023 at 12:44 am
These pork and chorizo burgers may seem fancy, but they can be ahead of time and are loaded with bacon (because everything’s better with bacon!), spicy chorizo and fresh herbs. Don’t expect any leftovers!
Pork has a very mild flavor and by adding chorizo you’re adding flavor. Building flavor in a dish is what keeps you coming back for bite after bite!
I highly recommend buying as many ingredients as you can from your local Trader Joe’s. TJ’s prices are pretty darn hard to beat! Your local Asian markets are also a good place to shop for reasonably priced meats and produce.ย
The recipe calls for store bought aioli. ย But if you can make your own it will taste so much better! ย Add minced garlic to mayo and you’ve got aioli. ย Chopped fresh herbs, like parsley and chives, are also delicious additions to aioli. ย
I use this recipe all the time to make homemade mayo — click HERE for the recipe! ย Personally, I prefer using olive oil instead of canola or safflower oil. ย I use a mild olive oil like THIS ONE because an spicy assertive olive oil will make your aioli way too aggressive tasting.
These pork and chorizo burgers are so packed with flavor they’re guaranteed to be your new favorite Summer dish!
