Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Build a fire for banked grilling in an outdoor grill.
  2. For a charcoal grill, let the coals burn until they are covered with white ash. Spread out the mound of coals into a bank, with one side about two coals deep, and the other side of the slope with a scattering of single coals.
  3. For a gas grill, preheat the grill on High.
  4. Leave one side on High and turn the other side to Low.
  5. In both cases, you will have two areas for cooking, one hot and the other cooler.
  6. To make the romesco, with the machine running, drop the garlic through the feed tube of a food processor fitted with the metal chopping blade to finely chop it.
  7. Add the almonds, red peppers, vinegar, paprika, and oregano.
  8. With the machine running, gradually add the oil, then season with the salt and pepper.
  9. Transfer the sauce to a bowl. (The romesco can be made up to 2 weeks ahead, covered and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.).
  10. Working as gently and quickly as possible (overmixing compacts the meat and makes tough burgers), mix the ground round, salt, and pepper.
  11. Lightly form into 4 patties about 4 inches wide.
  12. Make an indentation, about 2 inches wide and 1/2 inch deep, in the center of each burger to help it keep its shape during grilling.
  13. Lightly oil the cooking grate.
  14. Place the burgers on the hot area of the grill.
  15. Cover and cook, turning once, until the outside is seared with grill marks, about 2 minutes per side.
  16. Move the hamburgers to cooler side of the grill and cover.
  17. Cook, turning once, until the hamburgers feel somewhat firm but not resistant when pressed in the center, about 4 minutes for medium-rare.
  18. If using a meat thermometer, insert it horizontally through the side of the burger to reach the center -it should read 125°F.
  19. During the last 2 minutes, top each burger with the cheese, and place the buns on the grill to toast lightly and warm through.
  20. Place a burger in each bun, top with a large dollop of romesco sauce, and serve immediately.
