Method

Burger Patties Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, hickory smoke seasoning, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Use your hands to mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.

Cooking the Patties

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a stovetop grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat and lightly grease it.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the burger patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on top. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the burgers reach your desired doneness.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    While the burgers are cooking, split the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Build the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the burger patty with melted cheddar, a slice of tomato, and some red onion slices. Drizzle BBQ sauce on top, then cover with the top half of the bun.
