Cooking Instructions
1.
Prepare charcoal grill for direct cooking. Place a set of grill grates upside down on the cooking grate to create a flat top surface.
2.
Separate the 80/20 Lean Ground Pork (2 lb) into 8 equal-size ball shape portions about 1/4lb each.
3.
Spray the grill grate surface with vegetable cooking spray and place the “meat balls” on the grate. Use a spatula to “smash” each one into a patty shape. Season with All-Purpose Spice Rub (2 Tbsp) and cook for 4 minutes.
4.
Flip each burger and season again with AP Rub. Continue to cook for an additional 4 minutes.
5.
Top with Cheddar Cheese (2 3/4 cups) and remove from grill once cheese is bubbly and melted.
6.
Brush the inside of each Hamburger Buns (1 pckg) with Butter (2 Tbsp) and grill for a few minutes until golden brown.
7.
To assemble the burgers: Layer Yellow Mustard (1/4 cup) and Dill Pickles (1/4 cup) on each of the bottom buns, top with a burger patty, a drizzle Barbecue Sauce (1/4 cup), another burger patty, more bbq sauce, and a final layer of Jalapeño Pepper Slices (1/4 cup) and the top bun. Serve and enjoy!
