Smoked Whiskey Burgers

By Este contenido ya no está disponible.

Whiskey in a burger? Dreams really do come true. We start by incorporating whiskey directly into the ground sirloin before lightly seasoning the patties with Traeger Beef Rub. Once they hit the grill, these burgers get another dose of the good stuff by lightly basting with our homemade sweet whiskey glaze.
