In medium bowl, blend (with hands) ground chuck, minced mango, salt, and pepper. Pack gently (don't smash) into 6 burgers and place on a plate to be grilled later. 3. With food processor fitted with grating attachment, process red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, jalapeno peppers, lettuce, and cabbage. Stir in cilantro, lime juice, and mayonaise (salt and pepper to taste). Set aside as topping for burgers once they're grilled. 4.

Apply glaze to the other side of the burger. Continue cooking to desired doneness. 5. When burgers are nearly done, place buns (cut side down) onto grill and brown lightly. 6.
