Today I’m making stuffed Fritos-Ranch Smoked Burgers (a.k.a. Juicy Lucy burgers) in the Gourmet Guru Grill. We are smoking these burgers using Mesquite Wood.

Heat your smoker to 225 – 250 degrees F. I am smoking these with indirect heat by using the plate setter in the Gourmet Guru Kamado Grill.

Ingredients
• Ground beef 2 lbs
• Crushed Fritos 1 cup
• Ranch dressing 6 oz
• Cheddar cheese 1 1/2 cup
• Worcestershire 2 tbsp
• Mushrooms ½ cup chopped
• Smoked Peppers ½ cup chopped
• White onion 1 chopped
• Bacon slides 2 per burger
• Minced Garlic 2 tbsp
• Prosciutto 3 oz chopped

Mix the ground beef, ½ of the Fritos, chopped onion and minced garlic.

Now to make the stuffing, mix the rest of the Fritos, Ranch Dressing, Mushrooms, Cheese, Worcestershire and Prosciutto.

You can make your stuffed burgers by hand, but I like using the Stuff-A-Burger Press. This really helps to make the job easy and each burger uniform in size.

After your burgers are prepared, season with your favorite burger/steak seasoning. I used Jack Stack Steak Seasoning from the famous BBQ restaurant in Kansas City.

Place your burgers on the indirect heat of in your smoker. Smoke time will be 1.5 to 2 hours.

When your burgers are done, finish with your favorite toppings. I used Romaine lettuce, bacon, tomato and a fried egg.
