Instructions

Prepare the grill to about 300° using hickory or oak for wood smoke.
Combine the brown sugar, garlic, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and dry mustard to create the steak rub.
Incorporate the seasoning mixture into the ground beef and form it into 8 patties, ensuring an indentation in the center of each.
Cook the patties over indirect heat with the lid closed for 5 minutes, then flip and continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 165°.
Remove the burgers from the grill and serve on hamburger buns topped with lettuce, tomato, onion, and your favorite condiments.
