Rainy Day Burgers and ABTs

Smoked Hamburgers

It was a gloomy, rainy day here in the DC area.  So what better way to shake off the blues than to fire up the GOSM.  Today’s lunch menu included ABTs and stuffed smoked burgers.

The jalapenos were giant so I decided to go boat style.  Sliced them up, filled them with cream cheese (chive & onion), grated cheddar, then wrapped in bacon.

They spent about 2.5 hours in the smoker at 250 degrees until the bacon crisped up.

ABTs

Our lunch main course was smoked stuffed burgers.  If you’ve never had one these are a real treat.  Smokey beef flavor on the outside and juicy goodness inside.  MMMMMM…

The stuffing was onions, mushrooms, 1/2 jalapeno, and a slice of bacon sauteed in butter and dry sherry.  Thin burgers patties were loaded with the sauteed goodness and some cheese then closed with another thin burger patty.

These were smoked for almost 2 hours to 160 degrees.  We had some hickory chunks in the smoke box.
