INGREDIENTS

  • 1-10 hamburger patties, about 1” thick

  • Beef & Game Pit Rub

  • Choice of cheese slices (optional)

  • Bacon slices (optional)

  • 1-10 hamburger buns

DIRECTIONS

  1. Light your Pit Barrel® according to the instructions.

  2. Using your thumb, put an indentation in the center of each hamburger patty, then season with a moderate dusting of the Beef & Game Pit Rub.

  3. Install the grill grate in the Pit Barrel®, arrange the burgers on the grate (and bacon slices, if desired), leaving space between each. Leave the lid off.

    Tip: Using tongs and a paper towel, apply a coat of olive oil to grill grate prior to cooking to prevent sticking.

  4. Cook burgers for 6-7 minutes, flip, then continue cooking for another 6-7 minutes, or until the burgers reach desired doneness (minimum internal temperature of 165º). Tip: To help nail the perfect temperature each time we recommend the outstanding thermometers from ThermoWorks .

  5. Optional: Top with cheese during the last two minutes of cooking. If cooking bacon, cook slices alongside burger patties for 6-8 minutes per side until reaching desired crispness.

  6. Remove the burgers from the cooker and tent loosely with foil.

  7. Toast the buns on the grill grate for 1-2 minutes.

  8. Serve with choice of toppings.
