1 lb. premium hamburger meat, seasoned and made into
patties
Cheese slices (cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack for more spice)
Green chili strips (from a can or you roast your own)
Ripe tomato slices
Crisp lettuce
Hamburger buns |
Season the hamburger patties to your taste and cook
on the grill.
Assemble the hamburgers as you like them. For mild, vibrant chili
flavor, top with Santa Cruz Red Chili Paste. Or try my
favorite - Santa Cruz Chipotle mayonnaise (1 T Chipotle paste mixed with
1 T mayo) for a sweet, hot smoky hamburger.
Sonoran Hamburgers are a delicious blend of Mexican 'heat' added to an
American favorite. Serve these at your next BBQ and watch them
disappear.
Make Sonoran Hamburgers your way, but be sure to include Santa Cruz
Chili and Spice Co. ingredients.

All beef hot dogs
Bacon
Pinto beans
Chopped onions
Chopped tomato
Mayonnaise
Mustard
Cheese
Roasted Green Chilies
Hot dog buns |
Wrap the hot dog in the bacon and cook before
making your hot dog. Mix and match your preferred ingredients, but be
sure to top it off with Santa Cruz
Red Chili Paste for a mild, savory
finish, or Santa Cruz Green Chili
Paste for a bright, tangy flavor,
or (my favorite) Santa Cruz Chipotle Paste for a smoky, hot kick.
These flavorful hot dogs originated in Hermosillo, Mexico but have
become quite popular throughout Arizona. Sonoran Hot Dogs are the latest
crossover of Mexican flavors with an all American classic. They
originated as a late night snack for hungry party animals heading home
after closing time. Their zest comes from building your dog just the way
you want it, but building off the basics.
