Step 1

Preheat your smoker to 180°F.

Step 2

While the smoker is heating, for the ground beef into 8 equally sized balls, and flatten into discs. (Use a stuffed burger press for the easiest way to stuff burgers that are uniform. Link below in Recommended Products area.)

Step 3

Mix together the filling ingredients in a small bowl. Divide equally between the 4 bottom patties. Place the top patty over the filling, and seal the edges well.

Step 4

Season both sides with your seasoning, and place directly on the grill grates.

Step 5

Smoke the burgers for 20 minutes. Increase the temperature to 400° and cook for another 15-20 minutes, or until the outsides are getting some grill marks and slight char.

Step 6

Remove and let cool for at least 10 minutes so you do not bite into molten lava.

Step 7

Serve on your favorite buns with your favorite condiments. We served these with guacamole and salsa. Regular ketchup and musturd would also work though!
