Upgrade your burger game with these delicious smoked burgers. They might take a little longer than just cooking them hot and fast on a grill, but the extra time is totally worth it!

Smoked Brat Burgers are simple to prepare and ready for sauerkraut, mustards, pickles, and melty cheese. Formed into brat patties, the seasoned pork is smoked and seared on the grill. Grab your favorite buns and beer, it’s time to grill.

Smoked Brat Burgers

bratwurst,

pepper,

Onion buns or rolls

sauerkraut

Dill pickles

mayonnaise

Dijon mustard

horseradish

fresh dill, chopped

pickle juice

Salt

Take a sharp knife and run it down the casing lengthwise. Open up the meat and remove it from the casing, adding it into a mixing bowl. Combine all of the meat from the bratwurst and form into patties about 1/2&#8243; thick, pressing a small indent in the center. Place the patties on parchment or wax paper lined on a baking sheet, and chill in the fridge for about 20 minutes.

Prepare the horseradish Dijonnaise by mixing all ingredients together. Season to taste and chill in the fridge until needed.

Preheat the smoker or grill for indirect cooking. I recommend a charcoal grill if possible, as you&#8217;ll be searing the burgers at the end. Set up a cool side with the warm coals on the other, aiming for around 275-300°F internal temperature. Add wood chunks or chips for additional flavor.

Smoke the brat burgers. Sprinkle some ground black pepper on the top and place them on the grill, away from the coals. Cook for about 30-45 minutes until they are around 145-150°F internal temperature.

Sear the burgers. Move them over the coals and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until done. Be careful of flare-ups from the pork fat. 

Add the cheese if using, and move the burgers back to the cool side to allow the cheese to melt for a minute.

Assemble the burgers with the Dijonnaise, sauerkraut, and pickles. Crack a beer and enjoy!

Easy smoked burgers (Using a pellet smoker)

beef

bbq seasoning

Brioche buns

cheddar cheese

Toppings (Lettuce, tomato, bacon, mayonaise ketchup, mustard)

Form 6 oz burger patties from ground beef and season with bbq seasoning.

Smoke burgers at 225°F for up to 2 hours or until the internal temperature of the burgers reach 150°F. (If you like the burgers more medium remove off the smoker when they reach 140°F)

Add a slice of cheddar cheese on each burger to melt just a minute or two before you remove them off the smoker.

Toast brioche buns and assemble burger together with your favorite toppings. I like lettuce, tomato, bacon, mayo,  ketchup and mustard,
