Chorizo Cheese Stuffed Burgers | Traeger Grills

Step 1

When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 325˚F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix the ground beef with Traeger Prime Rib Rub, as desired.

Step 3

Make the stuffed burgers. Divide the ground beef into eight 1/4 lb. patties. Make one patty on the base, lay down 1/4 of a cheese slice, add 3 oz. of chorizo, and top with another 1/4 cheese slice. Apply another patty on top and pinch the ends all the way around the burger to seal together the two patties. Repeat until all 4 patties are done.

Step 4

Place the burgers directly on the grill grates, close the lid and cook for 15 minutes on each side. If desired, top each burger with a slice of cheddar cheese, let melt.

Step 5

Remove the burgers from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes tented with foil.

Step 6

While the burgers are resting, brush the brioche buns with melted butter and place cut-side-down directly on the grill grates to toast for 1-2 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the buns from the grill and assemble the burgers with tomato, onion, lettuce, and pickles as desired. Enjoy!
