Ingredients (Makes 6–8 burgers):
- 2 lbs Coleman’s ground pork
- ½ cup finely diced onion
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup tbsp Knotty Rub (or your favorite BBQ rub)
- ½ cup Panko bread crumbs (or more as needed)
Burger Toppings:
- Toasted burger buns
- Pickles, lettuce, tomato, red onion
- Cheddar Cheese or Pepper Jack
- BBQ sauce, mayo, or mustard
Directions:
- Mix the Patties
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, diced onion, minced garlic, Knotty Rub, and Panko bread crumbs. Use your hands or a spoon to gently mix until thoroughly combined. - Form Patties
Divide the mixture into 6–8 equal portions and form into patties, about ¾ inch thick. - Preheat the Pellet Grill
Set your pellet grill to high heat (450–500°F). Let it preheat fully before placing any of the burgers on the grill. - Grill & Sear
Place patties directly on the grill grates. Grill for about 4–5 minutes per side, flipping once, until internal temperature reaches 160°F. Make sure you get a nice sear on both sides of the burgers.
Assemble & Enjoy
Rest burgers briefly, then serve on toasted buns with your choice of toppings and sauces.
