Print Recipe Pin Recipe
Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 Lbs Ground Beef
  • 1/4 Cup Stubb's Smokey Mesquite Bar-B-Q Sauce
  • 2 Tbsp Stubb's Beef Marinade
  • 1/4 Tsp Stubb's Mesquite Liquid Smoke
  • 1 Tsp Stubb's Beef Rub
  • 1 Large Yellow Onion, cut into slices
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • Bacon Slices, cooked crisp
  • Onion Rolls or Hamburger Buns
  • Toppings Of Your Choice

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, Bar-B-Q sauce, Stubb’s Beef Marinade, liquid smoke (optional) and Stubb’s Beef Spice Rub. Use your hands to mix well. Once combined, separate the mixture to make six patties. Make a slight indent with your thumb in middle of each patty to keep it from swelling while on the grill.
  2. Prepare your grill for direct medium-heat cooking. Lightly oil the grates and place your burger on the grill, indent side up. Cook burgers for 12-14 minutes or until preferred doneness (160°F) turning once during cooking. While burgers are cooking, add the onion slices to the grill and cook until lightly charred and soft, turning once. Also toast the buns.
  3. To serve, top burgers with Bar-B-Q sauce, bacon, grilled onion and shredded cheese. Add additional toppings to your liking.
  4. TIP: To cook the bacon for this burger, you can cook ahead at home by line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and laying bacon on top. Cook in a preheated oven at 375°F for 15-20 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate to cool. (And a tip from Inside Tailgating: If you want to cook the bacon at your tailgate, use the cool area of your charcoal grill  – the part with no coals underneath – to prevent flare-ups and lightly grease the grate. Using tongs, lay bacon perpendicular to the bars of the grate.)
