These burgers are pretty popular in the blog world and after using Sriracha in another recipe, I knew I needed to make them soon. If you don't like spicy foods, I'd stay away from this recipe. 🙂

Notes
Adapted from: The Sriracha Cookbook
Tom and I both thought these burgers were absolutely delicious! We used regular hamburger buns which got a bit hard to manage with the burger and all of the toppings, so I'd recommend a heartier bun for these. Either way, the spicy flavor of the Sriracha came through in the burger and on the sauce. I'm pretty sure Tom will be asking for these on a regular basis!
