Ingredients

  • 2 pounds brisket
  • 1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons granulated garlic
  • 1 ½ teaspoons granulated onion powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons green or red chile powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme
  • ¾ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon dry mustard
  • Sesame Seed Buns
  • Sliced Tomatoes
  • Lettuce
  • Condiments

Instructions

  • Chill meat grinder parts while you slice the brisket into 1 1/2 to 2 inch chunks.
  • Grind brisket with the coarse plate once for a coarser grind or twice for a finer grind. We liked the texture of 1 grind.
  • In a bowl combine brown sugar with garlic, onion, thyme, chile powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper and dry mustard.
  • Mix into ground brisket and form into 6 patties with an indention in the center of each.
  • Prepare a grill fire to about 350° with hickory or oak for smoke flavor.
  • Cook burgers over indirect heat with the grill closed for about 5 -7 minutes.
  • Flip burgers and continue to cook until internal temperature reaches 165° with a digital thermometer, about 15 minutes total.
  • Remove burgers from grill and serve on buns with lettuce, tomato and preferred condiments.

Notes

Store leftover burger patties in a ziploc bag or wrapped in foil in the refrigerator up to 3 days.
Reheat in a covered skillet with a tablespoon of water. Cook over medium heat about 5- 8 minutes, flipping half way through.
An air fryer is great to reheat burgers - 350° for about 3- 4 minutes.
