Ingredients

• 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
• 1 dash Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
• 8 flour tortillas
• 4 (4 ounce) hamburger patties
• 2 cups shredded Colby-Jack cheese
• 3 tablespoons picante sauce, or to taste
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 0.25 cup taco sauce
• 0.25 cup ranch dressing
• 0.5 head lettuce, shredded, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Mix sour cream, ranch dressing, and taco sauce together in a bowl until Southwest sauce is smooth. Cover bowl and refrigerate for flavors to blend.

Step 3

Cook hamburger patties in the preheated grill for 5 minutes, seasoning with Worcestershire sauce. Flip patties. Arrange tortillas on the grill and lower heat to medium-low under tortillas. Add Cheddar cheese and Colby-Jack cheese to tortillas; cook until cheeses melt, 2 to 4 minutes. Continue cooking hamburger patties until cooked through, about 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Step 4

Spread Southwest sauce onto 1/2 of the tortillas; top with lettuce and picante sauce. Place 1 hamburger patty on top of picante sauce layer and top patty with a tortilla, creating a sandwich.
