Kielbasa & Andouille Burgers

[TentHunter]

I'm out of homemade kielbasa, and didn't have time to make a whole batch and smoke it in time for supper, so what to do?

Make smoked Kielbasa burgers! You can do this with ANY sausage recipe.

I mixed up 2 1/2 lbs of Kielbasa, turned 1 lb of that into Andouille and pressed them into patties.

Onto the MAK at 225° to cook low & slow & catch lots of smoke until they reach an internal temp of 160°.

Done. Oh baby do these smell good!

Served with some mustard potato salad. I topped mine with some kraut & spicy mustard.

YUM!

YUM!

I started doing my bratwurst this way, the wife and I like it in burger form better. Suits me fine, much easier than having to mess with stuffing them.

Cleveland is about 40 minutes or so North of us. You gonna be in the Cleveland area?

Yes but it's a ways off. Also, I probably won't have a car. I was thinking if you were close by we could grab a cold beverage one evening.
