Essential Ingredients for Traeger Burgers

• 2 lbs Cold Ground Chuck (80%-90% fat content)
• 8 oz Crumbled Gorgonzola
• 4 slices Bacon (cooked and crumbled)
• 1 cup Fresh Spinach
• 2 Tomatoes (sliced)
• Salt (to taste)
• Black Pepper (to taste)
• 4 Hamburger Buns

Preparation Instructions:

1. Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions and form them into patties.

2. Evenly distribute the Gorgonzola cheese among four of the patties, placing it in the center, and top with crumbled bacon.

3. Place the remaining patties on top of the Gorgonzola and bacon-filled patties, reshaping as necessary with a gentle touch.

4. Transfer the patties to a plate and cover loosely with plastic wrap.

5. Refrigerate for one hour to allow the flavors to meld.

6. Before cooking, season both sides of the patties with salt and black pepper.

7. Preheat the Traeger grill by starting on the Smoke setting with the lid open until the fire is established (approximately 4 to 5 minutes).

8. Adjust the temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (High) and preheat with the lid closed for 10 to 15 minutes.

9. Grill the burgers, turning once, until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit, which should take about 20 minutes.

10. To serve, place each burger on the bottom half of a bun, then layer with spinach, tomato, onion, and the top bun.
