@jenniferdanella: Smoked Venison Burgers Info for giveaway at BearMountain.com Ingredients 1 pound Ground Venison (with 15% fat or higher) 1.5 - 2 tablespoons Burger Rub 4 Slices Cheddar Cheese 4 Burger Buns Assorted Burger Toppings Burger Rub 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder 2 teaspoons Onion Powder 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika 1 teaspoon Salt ½ teaspoon Black Pepper Recipe Directions Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees F using your Bear Mountain BBQ Woods Chophouse Pellets. Shape the venison into 4 quarter pound patties, about 1/2 inch larger in diameter than your burger buns. Mix together burger rub seasonings then season the patties on both sides. Place the seasoned patties on the grill and smoke until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 125-130 degrees F, about 30-45 minutes to one hour. Remove from the grill and increase the heat to high. Sear the burger patties each side until they’re cooked to your desired doneness. Add cheese after the first flip. Assemble your smoked burgers on toasted buns with any desired toppings and serve immediately. #ambassador #wildgamecooking #venison
