  • 3 tbsp Mayo
  • 2 tbsp Ketchup
  • 2 tbsp Sweet relish
  • 1 tbsp Garlic wholegrain mustard
  • 1 tbsp Truff hot sauce

Burgers

  • pound Ground chuck 80/20
  • 3 tbsp Seasoned salt
  • Brioche buns

Bacon-Wrapped Onion Rings

  • 2 Sweet onions cut into rings
  • 1 8-10 oz block of Colby cheese cut into thin strips

Beef Short Ribs

  • ½ lb Boneless beef short ribs shredded

Instructions
 

  • The first step to this amazing burger is getting the bacon-wrapped onion rings done properly. Have our Colby cheese cut into long thinner strips 1/8” thickness. 
  • Cut your onion in half and then make onion rings that are 1/4” thick. Take the largest onion ring and place it down and then fit another one that is a bit smaller, you want a slight gap in between, this is where you will stuff the thin strips of Colby cheese.
  • Now you wrap the bacon tightly around the onion ring until it's all covered. Typically this will be about 2 full strips of bacon.
  • Now set your smoker to 350-375, using hickory wood, and place the onion rings on the smoker and smoke for about 45 mins. You are looking for the bacon to be nice and crispy.
  • Have your burgers pressed into 1/2 patties. Now season with seasoned salt. Place your onion rings on a side plate at this time. Crank the griddle up high for grilling.
  • While your griddle is warming up, make your burger sauce. Add all the ingredients listed above and mix well. Place to the side and now toast your buns using mayo.
  • As soon as you flip cheese your burger. Cheese with Vermont cheddar cheese and grill for another 3 mins. 
  • Sauce your top and bottom buns. Assemble your burger by going patty, onion ring and then stuffing the core of the onion ring with the shredded beef ribs. 
  • This is the best part, you see this epic creation before your eyes and now it's time to feast. 
  • Serve with family and friends!
