For an extra smoky flavor, consider using a blend of ground beef and ground smoked sausage. Ensure the internal temperature of the burgers reaches 160°F (70°C) to guarantee they are fully cooked. These burgers are fantastic with a side of coleslaw or potato salad for a complete summer meal.

Follow The Directions
01
StepSet a slow cooker to Low.
02
StepCreate a rack for the bottom of the cooker by rolling aluminum foil into 1-inch rolls. For a 5-quart, oblong cooker, make 4 rolls, using the length of the cooker as a guide. Fold in any long ends and squeeze back on the rolls. Evenly space the rolls along the bottom of the cooker. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
03
StepCombine ground beef, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, steak seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add bread crumbs and egg. Mix all ingredients using your hands until they are evenly distributed. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
04
StepForm meat mixture into 4 patties, about 1/2 inch thick. Brush each side of the patties with 1/2 teaspoon of browning sauce, and place on the aluminum 'rack', being careful not to overlap. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
05
StepCook on Low for about 4 1/2 hours until burgers are no longer pink in the center. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
06
StepPlace each cooked patty on a hamburger bun. Add your favorite toppings and serve immediately.
