Everyone has heard of Beer Can Chicken, but what about a Beer Can Burger? It's a new method of cooking bliss magic.
Basically, 1/2 pound of hamburger meat in a ball gets wrapped around a beer can, meat gets wrapped with Bacon, then can is removed and you can stuff
the can void with what ever you want.
I had left-overs of 8 hours slow smoked pulled pork from a couple nights before, so that was the main stuffing.
For the Beer Can Burger, I used very Lean 90/10 beef (lightly seasoned) , then 6 pieces bacon wrap, filled with pulled pork and sautéed mushrooms and
onion stuffing, layered in, crumbled blue cheese bits, provolone cheese topped..........then a 1/2 hour indirect heat smoke on the BBQ with mesquite
wood.
pictures tell the story better :
Pulled Pork Leftovers: I used a bread loaf pan, it creates and retains lots of juices in pan over the 8 hour smoke of a pork butt.
then for the Beer Can Burger, get a 1/2 pound ball of seasoned lean ground beef, and using saran-wrapped can, smunch can into and mold the meat
around.
wrap in bacon, 3 rows high. fill crater in beef with stuffing of choice, (mine was onions mushrooms, blue cheese crumbles, provolone cheeze topped,
then burger slow cooked ~30-40 minutes over indirect heat..........serious decadent yummy meal.
:D

Making pulled pork for my son's high school graduation party tomorrow. Had to break out my old friend the smokenator 2600. stainless accessory for a
26.5" weber grill (you can't get this size weber at the box stores) I've got the meat on, and apple wood chunks soaking for the every 2 hour butt
maintenance. looks it's going to be a long night of trying to stay hydrated and grilling. 6 am should be good3shot - 11-7-2015 at 03:33 PM
Whew... 4 Butts on a Weber. Got your work cut out! Windy Heap - 13-7-2015 at 08:22 AM

The last picture is just part of one butt. I filled an entire 18 qt nesco and mixed in 2 half gallon jugs of sweet baby ray's. 18 hour total cook

Good job my man! Good job!! Weber smoking can be a delicate thing. Kudos on pulling off some good looking Q. I can honestly say that cooking is as
rewarding as eating.
I've been modifying and breaking in my new Oklahoma Joe smoker the last few weeks. We did 4 butts the week before July 4th. Then 6 chickens, and 2
ribs on the 4th. Had an accidental phone memory dump last week and lost all my pics. :barf::barf::barf:T-Dot - 16-7-2015 at 08:49 AM
I almost got the OK Joe but I ended up getting a good deal on a Napolean Apollo. Here's a couple birds that were smoked on Monday.
This is the recipe I use for bbq baked beans. This has been a huge hit every time I make them. Fairly labor intensive but like Jason says, cooking
is half the fun.3shot - 16-7-2015 at 02:05 PM
They closed our local Famous Dave's ssayre - 16-7-2015 at 02:08 PM
No way! That's probably my favorite restaurant that we have locally. We don't have hardly any good bbq around here.3shot - 16-7-2015 at 02:20 PM
It was a franchise restructuring if I read it correctly. Closed up a bunch of locations across the country. My next closest one is two hours away. We
do however have BBQ on just about every other corner. Windy Heap - 16-7-2015 at 03:25 PM
Did Someone say Brisket with dipping sauce?
Look at all the juices in the pan...nice bark and deep pink smoke ring too.
T-Dot - 16-7-2015 at 04:10 PM
Nice brisket! I've got a full one sitting in my freezer. I'm just waiting for a good time and the right guests to commit to the 16-18 hours on the
smoker 1oldkid - 16-7-2015 at 04:31 PM
