De La Vega's Pecan Grill and Brewery (Las Cruces, NM)

De La Vega's Pecan Grill and Brewery offered a wide selection of menu choices.

The Lava Burger - $11
An 8 oz beef patty stuffed with American an white cheddar cheeses, served on a kaiser roll with charred green chiles and garlic aioli.

S. promptly scraped off the green chiles after taking this photo because, let's face it, that's a lot of spice.  Too much spice for S.  The burger was delicious and and there was still a hint of chile on it.  The cheese inside made for a very moist burger.

A close-up of the lava (aka melted cheese) flowing from the sliced burger.  And it would appear that one diced chile escaped S.'s wrath.
