Grilled Taco Burger with Cheesy Potato Packets

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Taco Burger with Cheesy Potato Packets.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your outdoor grill to a medium heat, and don’t forget to lightly oil the grate to keep everything from sticking.

2. Step 2

   While the grill warms up, cut four sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil, each measuring 12 by 18 inches—this will be the cozy home for your delicious meal.

3. Step 3

   In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, bread crumbs, milk, and taco seasoning mix.

4. Step 4

   Mix everything together until it’s well blended, then shape the mixture into four patties, each about 4 inches wide.

5. Step 5

   Now, let’s add some flavor to those potatoes! In another medium bowl, toss the diced potatoes with salsa until they’re evenly coated in that zesty goodness.

6. Step 6

   It’s time to assemble your foil packets! Place one beef patty in the center of each foil sheet, and generously top each patty with a quarter of the potato mixture.

7. Step 7

   To finish it off, sprinkle a quarter of the shredded Cheddar cheese on top—because who doesn’t love a cheesy touch? Now, wrap each foil packet securely, making sure to use double-fold seals while leaving a little space inside for heat to expand.

8. Step 8

   This is where the magic happens! Carefully place the packets seam-side up on the preheated grill.

9. Step 9

   Cover the grill and let them cook for about 25 minutes, rearranging the packets occasionally to ensure even cooking.

10. Step 10

    You’ll know they’re ready when the patties are cooked through and the potatoes are tender.

11. Step 11

    For peace of mind, check that an instant-read thermometer reads at least 160°F (71°C) when inserted into the center of the patties.

12. Step 12

    Once done, carefully unwrap those foil packets and enjoy a delightful meal that’s bursting with flavor and perfect for sharing!.
