The Dig Daddy BBQ Burger Grilled On The Weber Kettle

[@BallisticBBQ]

That burger was a BEAST and the color you achieved was beautiful! Great cook!

[@CookingWithRy]

Thank you, Greg! It wasn't quite the octoburger you made, but it was a jaw stretcher :)

[@eddieg.765]

The Big monster BBQ Burger mouth watering!

[@endofanera1983]

I like that you made it still approachable. Usually people make things that will end up hard to eat.

[@CookingWithRy]

It was borderline, I admit, but still edible--with assistance :)

[@GlenAndFriendsCooking]

That burger looked amazing! When we cook giant burgers like this (or even just larger regular sized burgers) we'll do a low and slow oven treatment first. 200º oven, bring the inside to about 100º, and then take it to the grill for finishing.

[@CookingWithRy]

Yeah you almost have to have some sort of oven/indirect part of the cook when it's this big :)

[@BillSchafer48]

Oh yeah! This burger is a winner. It has a date with my Weber next weekend.

[@CookingWithRy]

Remember to invite at least one other person to help finish it :)

[@fat2fitdad758]

Great video!! You were juuuuuuust within the “big yet edible” size..😂😂

[@marvinmcmiller6238]

Super 🍔 burger...looks so tasty!!!

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks!

[@EddyGurge]

Every bite creates a river.

[@CookingWithRy]

The stains on my shirt confirm that :)

[@DaveDabomb]

[@CookingWithRy]

Thank you!

[@WeekendWarriorBBQ]

That is my kind of burger right there! Great job, Ry!

[@CookingWithRy]

It was basically a very tasty flat cannonball :)

[@CentralTexasGrilling]

Now that's a burger! Well done my friend.

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks! I loved that full competition video you just put out. Really, really interesting to see the precision involved in cooking and boxing for turn in :)

[@connietaylor504]

WOWZA!!! Ry, that is a seriously good looking burger and I KNOW it had to taste DELICIOUS!!👍

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks!

[@earlivey2420]

man that burger looks good.

[@CookingWithRy]

My son agreed when he devoured the other half :)

[@onlyychevys]

I was thinking: let the force be with you: as you took your first bite lol. I know that was amazing!

[@CookingWithRy]

I needed the force for that bite :)

[@CookingWithCJ]

That'a beast burger right there Ry! Looks amazing! Cheers brother!

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks! Loved your live chat with Daddy Cooks, but was multi tasking and couldn't chat in it :)

[@mad-zr8wy]

Thanks. Great to see you making what you feel like. Something a bit different.. (I watch a lot of bbq at the mo )

[@CookingWithRy]

I appreciate that. Thank you :)

[@ForgetU]

Mouth was watering again with this video.

[@CookingWithRy]

I'm still wiping up juice from it :)

[@earlivey2420]

[@CookingWithRy]

Awesome. I love that seasoning :)

[@georgecutting3952]

Oh my now that's a fantastic burger inside and out beautiful color on the outside real pretty medium rare on the inside just fantastic bro I don't think you could get much more perfect than that

[@CookingWithRy]

Thank you!

[@johnkaneiii9167]

Wow that's a burger, I'm going to the butcher this morning I'm hungry

[@CookingWithRy]

Cows are gonna hate me :)

[@Jesse8174life]

I want this burger, but can you make mine a double and add a few grilled jalapenos please.

[@CookingWithRy]

Coming right up. Will you need a crowbar for your jaw with that?

[@CookinWithJames]

Dig daddy or big daddy!! lol!! Man that is mammoth!! great cook my friend!!

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks!

[@iambiblefellowship2886]

Wow very nice 👍😋 getter done

[@CookingWithRy]

Thank you!

[@EverydayBBQ]

Glorious burger, Ry! I’d eat that whole thing!

[@CookingWithRy]

I had to give in and share it with my son :)

[@zoltank.9757]

Go big or go home! Great burger. You had me at cast iron and charcoal. :)

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks!

[@FireWaterCooking]

I need to cook more burgers in my Videos.. Another Great Cook Ry!

[@CookingWithRy]

Thank you!

[@EddyGurge]

Here's a video idea for you (if you haven't already) how to clean and care for cast iron that is used on the grill.

[@CookingWithRy]

I've done a cleaning cast iron video before, and I pretty much only use mine on the grill outside. That's my happy place :)

[@RHPJR]

Looks good, but where did you find those tongs they look really sturdy?

[@CookingWithRy]

You're about the 10th person to ask that, and I'm sorry to say I have no idea. They were a gift a while back but I can't remember who gave them to me. But they are fantastic :)

[@mikebuzzard2926]

Where did you get the round ring to make it?

[@CookingWithRy]

Amazon. I have it listed in my Amazon store here: www.amazon.com/shop/cookwithry :)

[@christopherpeltier500]

The Burger King! Literally! Lol

[@CookingWithRy]

I did bow to it off camera :)

[@LassesFoodAndBarbecue]

That is a Burger :) looks great

[@CookingWithRy]

Technically it's about 6 burgers crammed into one burger body, I guess :)

[@LassesFoodAndBarbecue]

Cooking With Ry hehe. True

[@TheMayhem15]

Nice man, wonder how that much would have cost in a burger joint?

[@CookingWithRy]

$20 or $25 I'd guess for the 'experience' :)

[@progers5019]

Oh yea Dig Daddy, wait...Big Daddy. LOL it worked. You know I was wanting to help you out with that other half. But, that's what sons do when they walk in...like hey, yo go eat that?? Mouth was watering all the way over here in SC.Nice burger Daddy.

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks! Yeah, sons are great when it comes to eating what was cooked for them :)

[@N1mro8]

Like it, going to make this one, but I will reverse sear it.

[@CookingWithRy]

That'll work :)

[@ronzufelt1428]

Another yuuuummmm

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks!

[@crimfan]

Low and slow smoke this?

[@CookingWithRy]

You could do a smoke indirect first and then finish with a sear, sure. I've done that on smoked burgers before. Works really well :)

[@johndavidson940]

That's one heck of a burger. That would cost about $35 in a pub. And if you can't finish it, an extra $10 for being a show off and failing😁 All kidding a side, nice cook. I would settle for a 6 oz patty myself. A local grocer sells a 10 pack of 1/4 lb, fresh pattys. They are about 3/4 inch thick and after shrinkage in the cooking fit a regular burger bun perfectly. Diameter wise it looks to be a small burger, but it's not really cause it has the thickness that is not seen in bugers often. The 10 pack is $10.00. I wish they sold them in 4 packs. Ten is just too many burgers to have in short period of time. I am not one to freeze extras. I think the flavor would be diminished a bit if freezing them and cooking later. You should've put the cheese in the middle of the patty for the largest Jucy Lucy cooked on the net. For a burger that size though, probably need 3-4 slices of cheese..

[@erikjohansson1814]

According to highly reliable news from N. Korea, Kim Yong Il invented the burger and us common people just copy him. Beside that fact, I don’t understand why especially burgers are frowned on by chefs who has managed to make a name for themselves. I find that a burger becomes bit better if some minced port is mixed with mixed beef. Reason being pork contains more fat and keeps things more juicy. Especially so if the burger patty is of normal more flat type. Your burger is perfect size for lunch or dinner 👍🏻

[@CookingWithRy]

Perfect size for multiple people :)

[@vipershinobi215]

If you put some bacon in the burger then put bacon grease on the burger it might be better just an idea and maby season the sides of the burger

[@CookingWithRy]

Yeah those sides were thick enough to take some seasoning :)

[@jdjp333]

Big daddy burger AKA as heart attack at 58 your moving there brah

[@DavePruett]

It's a beautiful recipe, but I'd make it about ¼ as thick. A matter of taste, of course, and I know some people subscribe to "bigger is better," but I don't want to wrestle with the burger and go Anaconda to get my mouth around it. I also like a better balance between meat-bun-and fixin's. Again, only expressing me personal taste. I have no problem with anyone who wants a burger twice this thick or with paper-thin patties. Make your burger as you like it! Thickness aside, the ingredients and recipe look fantastic!

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks! Yeah, I generally prefer a more manageable burger. I just wanted to push the limits on this one :)

[@jessevardaman6208]

Why am I suddenly hungry?

[@CookingWithRy]

I feel the same way nine times a day :)

[@mts982]

looked like a meatloaf.

[@CookingWithRy]

In the shape of a hamburger :)

[@thomaslinden7598]

thats a small cake ring

[@CookingWithRy]

Not when there’s ground beef in it :)

[@Ultrabluber]

I think the intro music is a tad to loud. Otherwise great video!

[@CookingWithRy]

Thanks. I'll take a look at the music volume on the intro :)

[@AT_68]

Looking good, however, I can't smell it from here.

[@CookingWithRy]

Get a cross breeze through the house--it'll hit you then :)

[@marciaprobst5745]

I wondered if you might be part snake and unhinge your jaw for a second. Impressive bite though regardless of your lack of reptilian skill sets.

[@CookingWithRy]

That would be a useful ability when I cook like this :)
