It's my mates 21st birthday today and he is celebrating with a BBQ/Party which he has every year. It has become some what of a tradition for me to make super hot burgers every year.

I love hot food. I add some form of chilli to about 80% of my meals. Last years burgers were probably the hottest thing I have ever eaten, but I have stepped it up a notch this year.

Ingredients:
1 tbsp Madras curry paste (Just for flavour)
1 tbsp Random curry flakes
1 tbsp Cayenne powder
10 Birds Eye chillis
6 Scoth Bonnet chillis
4 dried Naga Jolokia chillis (hottest chillis in the world)
1/4 tsp 7.3 Million Scoville chilli extract
1 clove chopped garlic
1" grated Ginger
Chopped Coriander
Salt
Pepper

Despite the heat, last years burgers were very tasty. The curry paste and ginger gives the burgers a spicy meatball flavour.

You have to be carefull when cooking something like this on a BBQ. The smoke that comes of is like tear gas.
 
what have you used to bind them together? they look very well formed :)
My secret technique... Basically form the mince into equal balls first. Then take each ball. Give 'em a squeeze, then chuck the meatball into your hand with force so it splats quite hard. Repeat about 10 times and the mince will form together nicely. Afterwards just gently squash and shape.

It takes a good few minutes to make 6 burgers but they won't fall apart on the BBQ and are nice and tender.
 
I have a love hate relationship with spicy food! I love eating it, but it kills my mouth :(

I'd love to try one, maybe I will in a couple of weeks if the weather has picked up, I imagine it's like biting in to the sun.
