Smoked Steakhouse Burger
Report
Smoked Steakhouse Burger is a true explosion of flavor. To take your burger to the next level, grind top-quality cuts of beef, make the steak sauce from scratch (it's easy), and if possible, smoke them to just barely medium (they'll finish cooking on the grill). Burger perfection!

Ingredients
- 1½ lbs beef preferably freshly ground Wagyu or top sirloin
- salt and pepper
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup steak sauce double the recipe, homemade is best
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
- 4 lices Provolone cheese
- 4 Brioche buns
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
For the Fried Onion Strips
- 1 medium onion cut into thin strips
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon smoked Paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Place the onions in a bowl and cover with the buttermilk. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour, if possible.
- Form the hamburger into third-pound patties (about 5.3 oz each). Liberally season with salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder on both sides.
- Smoke the patties until an internal temperature reaches 135°F, usually about an hour and a half. (You'll flip the patties and slather them with steak sauce after about 45 minutes).
- Meanwhile, make the steak sauce (click on the link for the recipe).
- In a large sturdy skillet, add enough oil to fill it about halfway. Heat the oil to 350°F.
- On a platter, mix together the flour, salt, paprika, and cayenne with a fork until completely combined. Remove the onions from the buttermilk, allowing excess buttermilk to drip off of them. Dredge them through the flour mixture until coated.
- Working in batches, carefully lower the breaded onion strips into the hot oil and fry until golden and very crispy. Remove with a metal slotted spoon/spatula/spider and place a plate that is lined with paper towels. Sprinkle salt over the freshly fried onion strips. Repeat with remaining onions.
- After about 45 minutes of smoking, slather the tops of the patties with steak sauce and then flip them. Slather on more sauce and continue smoking until they reach 135°F.
- Mix together the mayonnaise with 2 tablespoon of the steak sauce. Set aside.
- Crank your grill to high heat. Butter the buns.
- Transfer the smoked patties from the smoker to the grill and close the grill lid (if possible). Grill over direct heat for about 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the burgers, add the cheese slices, and place the buns on the hot grates. Cook until the cheese has melted and the buns are toasty, about another 1 to 2 minutes. Remove hamburgers and buns.
- To build the burgers, add a healthy slather of the steak sauce/mayo mixture on the bottom bun, then add a cooked hamburger patty, a pile of fried onion strips, and top with the toasted bun top. Serve at once with additional steak sauce on the side.

- If you don't have a smoker, you can cook these burgers on your grill. You'll get a little smokiness from the flames caused by the juicy burgers.
- To finish off the smoked burgers, it's best to give them a quick high-heat sear on your grill or a super hot cast-iron skillet.
- The steak sauce can be made several days in advance. Keep covered in the fridge until ready to use.
