# Jerk Burgers 

As the weather warms up we love to fire up the grill and try different burgers as often as possible. For these Jerk Burgers we used our [Jamaican Jerk Seasoning](https://spicesinc.com/seasoning-blends/jamaican-jerk-seasoning); as it has a dash of heat but won't burn your face off. If you're looking for more heat add a fresh jalapeno or Scotch bonnet chile pepper.

We chose 80/20 ground beef so that the burgers are a bit juicier. When you start working your patties, remember to put them together quickly and be done. The more you handle proteins, the tougher the meat becomes.

This was a tasty burger and super-fast to cook on the grill. For a side dish, you could go with one of our favorites - [Sweet Potato Chili Fries](https://spicesinc.com/recipes/sweet-potato-chili-fries). For even more of a flavor of the Caribbean, whip up a [Tropical Mango Salsa](https://spicesinc.com/recipes/tropical-mango-salsa).
