Ingredients

8 slices marble rye bread thickly sliced
1 pound ground beef 80/20
1 Tablespoon Hey Grill Hey Beef Rub or equal parts salt and pepper
½ pound corned beef thinly sliced
4 thick slices swiss cheese

Homemade Thousand Island

½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup ketchup
2 Tablespoons sweet pickle relish
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder

Toppings

sauerkraut
red onion sliced
green lettuce leaves

Instructions

Preheat. Fire up the grill and allow it to preheat to 450 degrees F.
Make the sauce. Make the homemade thousand island sauce by combining all ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside and prepare all burger toppings.
Season. Form patties by dividing the pound of ground beef into 1/4ths. Season both sides with Hey Grill Hey Beef Rub or equal parts salt and pepper.
Grill. Place the seasoned patties on the grill grates and close the lid. Grill for 3-4 minutes. Flip the patties over. Arrange slices of corned beef right on the grill grates to crisp up for about 2 minutes. Top each burger with an equal portion of the grilled corned beef and a slice of Swiss cheese. Close the lid and cook the burgers to your desired doneness and cheese meltiness.
Toast the bread. Slide the burgers over to a portion of the grill with no direct heat. Set the slices of marbled rye onto the grill grates and toast each side for 1-2 minutes.
Assemble your burgers. Place a layer of burger sauce on the bottom slice of rye, followed by lettuce and onion. Top with a corned beef burger patty. Top with a pile of sauerkraut, more burger sauce, and the top slice of toasted rye bread. Serve with lots of napkins and a cold beverage.
