    Place burgers on the Traeger for 15 minutes on each side. If desired, top each burger with slice of Cheddar cheese, let melt. Remove from Traeger and let rest for 10 minutes tented with foil.

  • 6

    While burgers are resting, brush the brioche buns with melted better and toast for 30-45 seconds on the grill.

    Remove buns from grill and assemble burger with toppings. Enjoy!
