Kathy Watson’s Devilishly Heavenly Green Chili Burgers For 2

Kathy’s Green Chili Burgers For 2

"These burgers are inspired by a place that is gone, but we went to many times for many years….Greasewood Flats. It was a crazy place in Arizona, up on Pinnacle Peak that included old carnival rides and a real pig walking around saying 'hi' to everyone. We sat around fire pits and enjoyed our burgers along with Margaritas."
