Directions
- Fire up your Pit Boss pellet grill to SMOKE and let it run with lid open for 10 minutes then preheat to 450°F. If using a gas or charcoal grill, preheat to high heat.
- Portion the ground meat into 8 smaller, thinner patties. Set 4 of them aside for the tops pieces of the stuffed burgers.
- On each of the other patties, take a piece of cooked bacon and break it into 4 pieces and place it in the middle of the burger patty. Do the same with one piece of American cheese per patty.
- Take the top patties and place over the stuffing and seal the edges with your hands molding the burger into what will look like a hockey puck.
- Season the burgers heavily with Pit Boss Lonestar Beef Brisket Rub.
- Make the onion rings Set deep fryer to 350°F. Soak the onions in buttermilk for 4-5 minutes. Pull the onions out of the buttermilk and let any excess liquid drip off for a few seconds.
- Toss in the flour until they are well coated. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until a crisp brown. Set aside.
- Place the burgers on the grill over direct heat for 4-5 minutes each side.
- Top the burgers with 2 slices of American cheese each. Once the cheese is melted, remove the burgers from the grill.
- Build the burgers with lettuce and tomato on the bottom bun followed by the burgers, bacon and onion strings. Enjoy!
