1 tbsp Garlic wholegrain mustard
1 tbsp Truff hot sauce
Burgers
1½ 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!
