Kingsford Smokehouse burgers

[Bob Correll]

My computer's been on a crash diet lately, mainly when I type.
Finally found out that if I slow down (as if I'm a 2 finger bolt of lightning on a keyboard) it seems to do better.

Anyhow, I'm a sucker to try anything new, so I gave the Kingsford Smokehouse briquets a go with lunch burgers the other day.

Started with tots over K-comp in a char-basket.

Dropped in just one smoke briq.

Salted 3 one third pound burgers.

And let the meat greet the heat.

Ketchup and hot sauce for tot dipping.

The burgers were great, with a nice hint of smoke.

My thoughts about the briqs so far:
They will flare up a little, but not as bad as wood.
Didn't time the length of smoke produced, but it seemed like several minutes.
Not a heavy flow of smoke from only one.
Surely need to use more than one for a smokier taste.

I'll test them again, but the bag will probably go to my little RV to use with the SJ when camping.

Hope to get a new laptop this week, so I can get back here and pester the hell out of y'all!

Have a great grillin' & smokin' Sunday!

Looks awesome. Love the grilled onions

 

[JimmyE]

Interesting, I don't think I ever saw those before. No, not the burgers, lol.

 

[Mike Cosgrove]

Burgers and tots, cant beat that.

 

[Alan F]

Thanks. Not sure why they made these. Maybe their market is inexperienced grillers who don't know about wood chunks.

 

[Tony R]

Tasty burgers Bob...

 

[Mike Coffman]

Awesome looking burgers Bob! My wife bought me a small bag of
those hickory briquets. My opinion is they do produce the smoke if
you use more than one. They seem to burn quite awhile, but I still prefer
my wood. Like you, I will save them for the SJ or if I just want a "hint" of
smoke on whatever I am cooking. Congrats on the new laptop!
