A Recipe by El Popular

An American Classic Meets A Mexican Staple. There are few foods as universally loved as the hamburger – you simply cannot beat a rich, juicy patty sandwiched between buttery-soft buns.

Chorizo 101

Chorizo is a spicy sausage believed to have come from Ancient Rome and later adopted by the Spaniards who brought it to Mexico. Unlike Spanish Chorizo — Mexican Chorizo is soft, raw, uncured, and uncooked. Similar to how Americans view bacon, Chorizo is a versatile ingredient used to enhance any dish!
