Chop your brisket trimmings into 1” pieces. You want to shoot for a meat to fat ratio of about 80/20. Store the chopped meat in the fridge until right before you are ready to start grinding.
Set up your meat grinder and run the chopped brisket through the grinder on the coarse grind setting. Place a bowl beneath the grinder to catch the ground beef.
Mix the meat with your hand to fully incorporate the meat and the fat, then form the meat into 2 burger patties.
Season both patties on all sides with the beef rub.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Add a bit of oil to the grates to help prevent your burgers from sticking.
Grill your burgers for 5 minutes per side for medium, or cook to your preference.
While your burgers are cooking, toast your buns on the grill as well.
If you are adding cheese, place the slice of cheese on top of your burger and shut the lid of your grill during the last minute of cooking time to melt the cheese.
Build your burger with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
