- 2 1/2 pounds ground pork
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic, plus 4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 teaspoon chopped thyme
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 5 large fresh Anaheim chiles
- 1 large poblano chile
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon chopped rosemary
- 6 ounces Gruyère or Italian Fontina cheese, cut into 6 slices about 1/4 inch thick
- 6 ciabatta or kaiser rolls, split and lightly toasted
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole-grain or Dijon mustard
- 2 cups arugula leaves
- 1 large Creole tomato (see Note) or beefsteak tomato, cut into 6 slices
Instructions
- In a large bowl, gently mix the ground pork with the minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, crushed red pepper, thyme, 1 tablespoon of kosher salt and 2 teaspoons of black pepper. Pat the meat into 6 burgers, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
- Light a grill. Grill the Anaheim and poblano chiles over a hot fire, turning, until charred all over. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 10 minutes. Peel, stem and seed the chiles, then cut them into long, thin strips. Transfer the chiles to a bowl and add the olive oil, rosemary and sliced garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
- Grill the burgers over a hot fire until just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. About 1 minute before the burgers are done, place a slice of cheese on each burger.
- Spread the bottom half of each roll with 1 tablespoon of mustard. Top with the arugula and a tomato slice. Set the burgers on the tomato slices and cover with the marinated chiles. Close the sandwiches and serve.
