I haven't seen any information on anyone cooking burgers on their Pit Barrel so I thought I would put one out here. I know this is going to sound strange, but some of the best ones that I have had were the Angus burgers from Walmart. I have tried brisket burgers from the butcher and some of their fresh ones and these were the best. I cook them in the Pit Barrel with the lid covered to 155 degrees. I use the iGrill 2 to monitor the temps via Bluetooth on my phone. The iGrill 2 is now owned by Weber (it was iDevices). Doing it this way has always produced an amazing juicy burger. I am cooking them with Kingsford Blue (about 1/2 full and lit with lighter fluid) and a small handful of Jack Daniels wood chips. I start the coals and I only let them heat up about 10 min. It's kinda nice biting into a burger with a smoke ring. Pictures are of a burger with cheese, avocado, caramelized onions and bacon. One picture also shows some corn and pork belly also done on the Pit Barrel. I'm thinking these may have to be made this 4th of July!!
