Anyone have any experience with burgers on a smoker?

Thinking about trying some this weekend. Found a couple of recipes online that looked interesting. Anyone have and tips or tricks to share before I give it a shot?
Might try 6-8 oz burgers, smoked to internal temp of about 150 and then finished on cast iron griddle in butter. Maillard reaction......
Searched and only found a thread that was about 5 years old....

Nothing wrong at all with a smoked burger, just cook to the internal temp of your desire for the wellness of the beef.

I did it once. Came out great. But 45 mins for a burger is tough to justify.

I figured I would set smoker at 225, put burgers on, stick thermometer probe in, and have a few cold ones while the burgers smoked.....

Just have other stuff to munch on while it's smoking.
I agree with the sentiment though. This isn't something I'd do if I was starving and craving a burger, but it's probably pretty good.

Just put the fricking patty on a cast iron

Go easy on the smoke. I had some that a guy smoked. I love BBQ, but the smoke taste on them was overwhelming. Others commented the same.

I do it quite often. I add Jack Millers to the meat to keep them from drying out.
Normally I do it so I can break them up and put them in my beans, but they're good as a burger.

Whole Foods has a smoked burger that is to die for. They won’t actually sell them so it’s not something that you can ever eat. But damn those things are good. Top 3 burger in NOLA imo.

I tried this exactly one time. I like smoked meat but the flavor I had in mind is not what I ended up with.

Go easy on the smoke. Ground beef absorbs smoke a lot more than a solid piece of meat.

Use cherry they get a great color! Use 80/20 and they won’t dry out. Works best with the thicker sized patties, they don’t shrink as much, don’t need a giant thumb print in the middle.
I’d smoke at 250 at least. I have done 225 and found out that if it’s smoked low and slow enough the meat does not change color even tho your temp will be done. Had to google that while I had some family members turning there noise up at well done pink meat on the inside.

One of the sleeper hits on the Blue Oak menu is the smoked hot sausage patty. It’s a similar concept to a smoked burger.

Going to use an 80/20 mix to make sure they don’t dry out. Also interesting tip about adding Jack Miller’s to the mix. I will also smoke at 250 so it does not prolong the smoking process too much and finish on cast iron with melted butter.
Good stuff. Thanks everybody!

It really doesn't take long to get the right amount of smoke on a burger. I just cook mine over coals with wood chunks in my Primo and get all the smoke I need, in a pretty fast cook.

I did some that were probably around 8oz one time at 225 for a hour, had a nice smoke flavor but a little well done for my liking. When I do them again I’ll probably pull them at 45 minutes.
