ground chuck burgers

Well a simple cook on the weekend.  I loaded up my 18" classic and made some burgers for the family.  I took a 5lb. chuck roast and coarse ground it, single grind.  After dicing up the meat, I seasoned it before running through the grinder.  Then I used my patty stacker and lightly pressed them into shape.  When they cooked, the meat was nice and loose and juicy.  

Got the grill up to 375 and added a few pieces of peach wood for flavour.  Then placed the burgers on the outer edge of the grill.  I cooked direct but placed the burgers out of the way of the hot heat. 

Pulled them just around medium IT after adding some cheese.  

Best burgers yet.  I love grinding my own meat!! 2 burgers were 8oz and the other 6 were 6oz.
