Beef and Chorizo Nacho Burger Sliders

Ground beef and spicy chorizo are combined in these grilled nacho sliders that are topped with queso dip, salsa and jalapeños!
Being born and raised an Oklahoma girl, there’s not much I love more than a cheeseburger and queso dip.
In Oklahoma if you order queso, you’re basically ordering a nacho cheese dip. I found out very quickly when I moved to San Diego that California Mexican restaurants consider queso something totally different.
When I was 18, fresh to San Diego via Edmond, Oklahoma, I went to an authentic Mexican restaurant for a friends birthday dinner.
I was still a pretty picky eater at that time. It’s true, I’m a full blown converted picky eater, turned, I’ll eat basically anything!
Needless to say, I was overwhelmed by the Mexican food menu so I just asked the waiter if I could have queso. He looked at me really funny, then I said “you know, melted cheese”.
He literally brought me back a plate of melted, grated cheese. I said “thank you” and never tried to order queso in San Diego again, haha!
Now I make my own queso at home and today I’m adding it on top of these delicious cheeseburger sliders!
Nacho Sliders Ingredients
- 10 oz chorizo
- 1 lb ground beef
- 12 slider buns
- 2 cups queso cheese dip
- 1 cup salsa
- ½ cup nacho jalapeños
Nacho Sliders Instructions
Combine the chorizo and ground beef in a large bowl.
Form into 12 slider burger patties.
Place on the grill over medium heat for 4-6 minutes per side.
Remove from the grill.
Place on the slider buns and top with the queso cheese dip, salsa and jalapeños.
I still make my queso cheese dip the good ‘ol Oklahoma way, Velvetta cheese and Rotel.
You’re welcome to make your favorite cheese dip recipe, or purchase a jar of queso cheese dip and pour it over the top. Either way, it’s cheesy deliciousness on top of meaty goodness!
