Hey everyone! Happy 4th of July! If you missed it last night on Twitch we did some Bacon Cheeseburger Tacos in celebration of today lol, but anyway. On to today’s recipe. I figure everyone will be out grilling today so let’s bump up this week’s burger recipe and throw it out there today lol. Perfect right? So I am doing a Coffee Rubbed Burger, with an AWESOME Homemade Dr. Pepper based BBQ sauce! I love experimenting with BBQ sauces so it was fun making one with Dr. Pepper as the sugar in it rather than the usual brown sugar (well there is some brown sugar still lol.) The coffee rub has a cool fine little flavor with a nice bite that is off set by the sweet BBQ sauce I think you guys will totally love this one so go ahead and give it a try!
