Steps:

1. In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, Italian sausage, chopped onion, salt and pepper. Using your hands, mix together and form into patties.

3. While burgers are cooking, prepare the gravy. Saute 1/2 pound ground sausage in a skillet. Once cooked remove from skillet and drain. Set aside
4. Add butter, onions, tomatillos, and jalepenos to the skillet. Cook for 6 minutes, until reduced in size. Add back the Italian sausage. Sprinkle with flour and whisk in milk, salt, pepper, cayenne, and garlic powder. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat.
5. To plate, slice biscuit in half. Add patty, top with gravy and other half of biscuit. Garnish with cilantro, jalepeno, and lime juice.
