• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 4 oz. shredded cheese (semi-soft like pepper jack or mozzarella)

How to assemble burgers:

2. Make 8 each ¼ pound patties.
3. Top 4 of the patties with 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese, centered.
4. Place another Pattie on top of each cheese-topped patties and crimp the edges to trap the cheese in the center.
5. Season the burgers with salt and pepper.
Marinated Tomatoes (marinade for at least 30 minutes but no longer than 1 day)
• 1 tomato
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 3 leaves of basil, rolled tight and sliced thin

Burger Sauce
• ½ cup Thousand Islands Dressing
• 1 tablespoon chipotle in adobo

Burger Toppings
• ½ cup Pickled Jalapeno
• 1 Avocado, quartered and sliced thin and grilled
• 4 Burger Buns, toasted
• ½ Cup shredded cheese
• 4 Lettuce leaves
• 4 Red onions, 1/8th inch thick disks grilled
Full Recipe:
1. Stabilize your grill at 500F and set up for direct cooking. Place one grill grate at the highest level of the flexible cooking rack and the other grill grate on the lower level. This will allow you to get closer to the heat or further away throughout the cook.
2. Slightly oil your grill grates.
3. Place the stuffed burgers on the lower grill grate and cook for 2 minutes and flip and transfer to the upper grill grate, continue to cook for another 2 minutes. Top with the shredded cheese and pickled jalapenos and close the lid and stifle the airflow a bit to really infuse the smoke flavor.
4. While the cheese is melting and the dome is closed, build the burger as follows: Bottom Bun, Sauce, Marinated Tomato, Grilled Onion Disk.
5. Open the draft door and Kontrol Tower, burp the grill and open the lid slowly. Top each burger with the grilled avocado slices and transfer the burgers on top of the grilled onion disk.
6. Top each burger with a sauced bun top.
7. Take a bite but watch out for the exploding melted cheese! Enjoy!
