Recipe Information

Ingredients:

SmokingPit.com - Great smoking recipes tips techiques smoker and grilling information. Traeger Texas Pellet Grills.


3 Lbs. 80/20 ground beef
1/2 Lbs. maple sausage
2 Tbsp butter
2 Large sweet onions
Medium cheddar cheese
Jack's Old South Hickory dry rub
Sun dried tomato & garlic basil seasoning
Garlic powder
1/2 Jar Boston Market's beef gravy
 Worcestershire sauce
1 egg

 

Preparation:

One of my favorite barbecue recipes for burgers. This is an addition to my colossal burger line. If your one of those folk who looks forward to the state fair just for the onion burgers known to many as "the fair burger", you are going to love this burger. Don't kid yourself... Size does matter. That said, if you like a big, thick burger loaded with flavor this recipe should be right up your alley. Keep in mind you don't have to make them as colossal as the ones in the video and pictures. Around here we go all out so I'm showing off a BIG JUICY Fair Burger!

Place about 8 slices of thick sliced bacon on your smoker and smoke @ 230 degrees until done.

Mix the maple sausage and ground beef together thoroughly. In a medium mixing bowl combine 1 egg and 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce. pour this over the meat and  add about 2 tsp Sun Dried Tomato & Garlic Pesto seasoning and 1 tsp garlic powder. Mix this into the meat thoroughly.

Take 8 slices of medium or mild cheddar cheese and using a glass or cup as a patter, cut a circle out of the cheese slices with a knife.

Slice up 2 large sweet onions. I used Texas sweet onions in this recipe. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a large skillet or Wok over medium heat. Add in all the onions and  1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce and cook them until they are caramelized. As they are cooking dust them with some garlic powder. When the onions are caramelized pour in 1/2 jar of Boston Markets (or like) beef gravy. Simmer the onions in the gravy for about 10 minutes and remove from heat.

Using the meat, form 8 patties 1" in diameter bigger then the diameter of the cheese slices. Lay down the first patty. Lightly sprinkle on some Jack's Old South Hickory rub. Now lay on 2 slices of cheese followed by a pile of sautéed onions. Break a couple pieces of smoked bacon up into pieces the same width as the cheese. Place them on top of the inions. Lay a patty on top of the cheese and then press the edges forming a seal. You have now enclosed the onions, bacon and cheese making your first Colossal Fair Burger. Now sprinkle on some of  Myron Mixon's,  Jack's Old South Hickory dry rub. This is one of may favorite rubs as it has great flavor that works on anything. Repeat the above steps making three more burgers.

Once the burgers are formed, place them in a smoker pre-heated to 230 degrees. Traeger owners, start on the smoke setting for about 1 1/2 hours then go to 230 degrees. Smoke the burgers until the internal temperature reaches 165- 70 degrees.

Pull the burgers when the internal temp reaches 165-170 degrees. 

Sauce them up if you wish or have them naked. They are great either way! Serve them on a plate with or without a bun. I would be surprised if these burgers didn't do it for you. Enjoy this gourmet smoked burger. Hope you enjoy this BBQ recipe!
