Let's get grilling

1 Fire up a full chimney of Original Kingsford® Charcoal, or light a pile of about 100 briquets. Configure the coals for a two-zone fire, placing the briquets on one half of the charcoal grate to create a hot zone for grilling and a cool zone for moving the burgers during flare-ups. Adjust the bottom grill vents for medium-high heat cooking, approximately 400–425°F.
2 To make the smoky tomato aioli, place the tomatoes and garlic in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the mayonnaise and paprika and blend. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate.
3 To make the orange piquillo relish, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Cover and refrigerate.
4 To make the patties, combine the onion, parsley, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix well. Add the ground chuck and chorizo and mix gently but thoroughly. Shape into six ½-inch thick patties. Sprinkle garlic on both sides and gently press in.
5 Brush the grill rack with vegetable oil. Place the meat patties on the oiled rack. Grill uncovered until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F. During the last 2 minutes of grilling, top each patty with cheese and place rolls cut sides down on the grill until lightly toasted.
6 To assemble the burgers, spread smoky tomato aioli on the toasted sides of each roll. Layer each roll bottom with arugula and a cheese-topped patty. Top each patty with a dollop of orange-piquillo relish and a sprinkle of smoked almonds. Add the roll tops and serve.
