Smokey Burger Toppings

Additional Toppings may include different types of Cheeses, Bacon, Mushrooms, Dill Pickles, Relish, Crispy Fried Onions, or Red Onions.

Smokey Burger Sauce

The Smokey Mayo Sauce is Mayonnaise with HP Sauce and a few drops of Liquid smoke to give that Smoke Flavor throughout the Sauce. This is sauced on the Crown. Add more Liquid Smoke or HP Sauce, depending on taste.

Smokey Burger Sauce

  • 2 Tbl Hellmann’s Mayo
  • 1 tsp Hp Sauce
  • 1/8 tsp Liquid Smoke

Smokey Burger Baste

Optionally brush on JAH Meat Oil unto the Burger Patties before cooking. This adds additional Smoke Flavor cooked into the Meat.

Not tested yet however I am going to get my hands on some Charcoal Oil and add this to the Meat Oil to get Both Charcoal and Smoked Flavor on the meat.

Cooking the Burgers

I usually just sear these and cook stove top in a skillet over medium heat. However, there are other cook methods that work just as well depending on the desired outcome that is outlined in How to Make Burgers.

For this particular recipe, I used the Panini Cook method. Where the Quarter Pound Patties are cooked for about 3–4 minutes or until the juices run clear.

Smokin Smokey Burgers

Absolutely the best way to cook burgers, hands down. Burger Patties done in the Smoker is my Favorite way to enjoy Nice & Juicy Smoked Burgers that really contributes to the overall burger.

If you never had a smoked burger, you have no idea what you are missing out on. You think Charcoal-grilled is good, wait till you bite into a smoked burger.

Place into a smoker at 225 F anywhere from 1 to 2 hours, depending on thickness, optionally Sear before serving. Smoke until an internal temp of 160 F. Juices should run clear.
