New Mexico’s Green Chile Cheeseburger Trail

New Mexico didn’t invent the hamburger, but we’re the one who added green chile and made it hot!

The green chile cheeseburger has been a staple on menus around the state since at least the middle of the last century. Many lay claim to its invention, but the fiery burger’s early popularization definitely was fueled by decades-old burger hotspots like The Owl Café in San Antonio, Burt’s Burger Bowl in Santa Fe, Bobcat Bite just outside of Santa Fe, and Blake’s Lotaburger’s original Albuquerque location.
