Love making 1/2 lb burgers and smoking them for dishes. The smoke really comes through. You can see how juicy the meat is.

Should of took a cut shot but these where perfectly cooked burgers for me. You can still see a little pink in meat.

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 medium onion, finely chopped
Lots of garlic I use wild elephant garlic
1-1/2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 cup diet cola
2/3 cup ketchup
1 Tbsp. vinegar
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp. dry mustard
3 Tbsp. Splenda Brown Sugar.
Black Pepper
Cayenne

At this point the smoke hits your nose

Everything in and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes stirring ever 10. Let sit for one hour to thicken up good.

Got some deli buns that were really good. Not had any really good corn again this year. Guess I need to go to Michigan!

Made up some Chocolate and Peach spirits. These are my friends favorites. Blueberry and Hazelnut are close 2nds.

I love smoked sloppy joes. I got the inspiration from doing a version of "over the top" chili and just ran with it. Yum.

Mouth's a waterin' man! Could you still hit them with some flame to sear them for burgers or would it dry them out too much?

Point for sure

To be honest I have not tried. I made them last week just for burgers and they were really good just the way they were but you can try and see? I been using a technique from ballistic bbq of putting small pieces meat in a cookie cutter than press down. It makes them really tender but also makes them easier to fall apart when flipping.

Looks great! I made keto sloppy joes awhile back and was in love all over again with sloppy joes!

That Victoria lady has a keto bun that I bought the mold to make but not sure the new version flour will work? I just had blood work and taking a week off diabetes :emoji_wink:

I help out at an annual BBQ and we have hot dogs and sloppy Joes (a slightly jazzed up version) as sides because there are plenty of kids. Quite a few adults will dive into the sloppy Joes as well.

I use Prestige Essence Flavorings added to 80 proof spirits with some sugar free sweetners. There are surprisingly good.
Oh heck yeah

Looks good.
Thanks Rick. Sloppy Joe also makes a great Hobo Pie..
