  • Burgers: In a large bowl combine all of the above ingredients and mix together well. Form the mixture into desired size burgers. Heat a large frying pan and add about 3 burgers at a time; Do Not Overcrowd the pan or the burgers will not have a beautiful char. Cook until the desired doneness; depending on how thick you make your burgers. Gently heat the buns in the pan that you cooked your burgers in for a nice flavor on the bun. For the Sweet and Spicy Bell Pepper Relish: Heat a large frying pan with the olive oil. Add the sliced peppers, jalapeño, onions and garlic to sauté; until the onions become slightly transparent and soften. Add the chopped basil and capers and toss while gently sautéing. In a small bowl combine the sugar and spices; add the Worcestershire Sauce and the balsamic vinegar; add this mixture to the pan and continue sautéing until the peppers are soft.

  • Choose the right peppers: Use a variety of sweet and spicy peppers to create a flavorful relish. Some good choices include bell peppers, jalapeños, and serranos. You might also include sweet and spicy mini bell peppers (for crunch and color), banana peppers, red peppers, cayenne, cherry peppers, and diced chipotles in adobo.
  • Chop the peppers finely: This will help the relish to blend well and distribute the flavors evenly.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, parsley, and basil, can add a bright, vibrant flavor to the relish.
  • Don't overcook the peppers: Overcooking can make the peppers mushy and lose their flavor. Cook them just until they are softened but still have a bit of a bite.
  • Taste the relish as you go: Adjust the sweetness, spiciness, and acidity to your liking. You can add more sugar, vinegar, or peppers as needed.
  • Let the relish cool completely before storing it: This will help the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Store the relish in a clean glass jar or container: The relish will keep for up to 2 months in the refrigerator.
