Smoked hamburger

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A smoked hamburger is a hamburger patty that has been cooked by exposing it to smoke from burning or smoldering material, most often wood. It is common in Texas.[1][2]

Smoking a burger can require 30 minutes to two hours' time over low heat, such as 225 °F (107 °C).[3][1][4][5] Smoking ground meat is prone to overcooking, as smoking is intended for long, slow cooks "far beyond well-done", according to Texas Monthly.[6] Nevertheless a hamburger is "one of the fastest and easiest things to cook on a smoker", making it a good choice for beginners, according to chef Robbie Shoults, speaking to Tasting Table.[4]

According to George Motz, recommended toppings are barbecue sauce, pickles, and onion.[1]
