Texas Heat Burger, 2 chili seasoned 1/3 pound sirloin beef patties, pepper jack cheese, Candied Jalapenos, Ghost Pepper Sauce all stacked on garlic Texas Toast. I love big burgers and it seems that I fall in love again every few weeks! A little sweet heat in Burger Heaven.

The folks at Briggs True Texas Seasoning were kind enough to send of some of their goodies and we made a zippy burger with them.

Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Green Mountain Wood Pellet Grill/Smoker but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme.  Wood Pellet Patio Heater, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a little wine, or strawberry margaritas using frozen strawberries for ice, good food, music and sometimes a dance or two…

Cooking Directions: Texas Heat Burger

We are using high quality frozen 1/3 lbs. sirloin beef patties tonight. Too easy. Preheat the grill grates to 500 degrees (260c). Season your patties and place them on the hot grill grates for about 5 minutes per side with a quarter turn around 2 ½ minutes for those nice grill marks or flavor bars as I call them.

After 5 minutes flip the meat turning again around 2 ½ minutes. When you do your quarter turn on this side add the cheese and put the Texas toast on. Your burgers are done when the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted. Bring them in and build your burger.

When the meat reaches an internal temperature 165 degrees (74c) pull them and build your burger. U.S.D.A. safe is 165 degrees (74c). Keep in mind that the meat will continue cooking for another 5 to 10 degrees after you pull it off the grill. I use a Maverick ProTemp Instant Read Thermometer for checking meat temps.

Note: I get a lot of questions about the kind of pellets you can use with a recipe. Keep in mind that a recipe is just an outline. Some you need to follow closely like when you are making bread, but most you can do anything you can dream, our favorite way to cook. Feel free to mix and match the pellets until you find a combination you really like. Also you are only smoking at temps less than 250 degrees (122c), anything higher is cooking and there will not be much if any smoke so it does not matter what kind of pellet you are using.

About our Recipes

We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Green Mountain, Sawtooth, Louisiana, Royall, Memphis, Traeger pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Pacific Living Outdoor Oven, Lodge Sportsman’s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our “Wall of Grill”. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.

The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can do our recipes on any grill, even some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.

Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don’t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it….

Live your Passion and Do What You Love,
Ken & Patti
