Instructions

Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.

Vidalia Peach Salsa
In a glass bowl, gently mix peaches with sugar and let stand 5 minutes.
Stir in remaining ingredients and let stand at room temperature for about 20 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

Patties
In a glass bowl, thoroughly knead the peanutbutter and pecans into the ground beef and form into 6 patties.

When the grill is ready, brush the rack with vegetable oil.Place the patties on the rack, cover, and cook, turning once, until done to preference, 5 to 7 minutes on each side for medium.

To assemble the burgers, place burger on bottom half of bun and spread a generous amount of the salsa across the top of each patty. Add the roll tops and serve.
