Hamburgers on green egg grill

[Cindygady]

Any special considerations or hints on how best to grill hamburgers on a green egg grill?

Not an expert on eggs, but someone will help soon. Welcome from Winnipeg

I have a .kamado joe I use a cast iron griddle or a cast iron pan would work

One method is crank the egg up to 600, cook the burger for two minutes, flip for two minutes. Shut the egg down and then pull the the burgers at desired doneness. Burp the egg to avoid possible flashback.

Yep, 2-2-2. After the second side cheese it and let it dwell with the vents closed for 2 minutes.

Don't forget to burp it.

I can't help, but welcome to The Pit.

Welcome from southeast Michigan! High direct heat till desired doneness.

I do ours on cast iron griddle at about 400 deg. Great crust and takes about 15 to 20 minutes. Flip about half way.

[FireMan]

Yup on the griddle & use a healthy dose of bacon grease or butter & plenty of cheese. Welcome, eat good & have fun!
Another option, is to flip right on the grill & flip often, every 30 seconds and watch the temp of said burger. Flip away to a crusty finish, it will give you a nice even cooking thru out.

Oh, and burp when you finish eating.😎🕶

Welcome to the Pit! Thanks for joining up! One great way to do burgers on the BGE is to make sure the whole grill is heat soaked before you grill anything. This will give you some awesome radiant heat from the dome. This is great for melting cheese, and browning toppings! It will also allow for the temps to be more stable throughout the cook and allow you to have more consistent results.

I would also look into adding some Grill Grates. They provide you with a grilddle like surface, only with holes in it, so the drippings still fall into the fire and give you great flavor. Mean while you have a nice, flat surface to cook on that will allow for an amazing Maillard crust across the whole burger. (They can be flipped over to use the rail side as well for a more traditional grilling method.)
