These are each served open-faced on a single piece of toasted bread, but you can certainly double up there. I’m seriously considering doing these in the cameron’s smoker i just got… :o)

Place 1 / 4 of the dry ranch mix in a small bowl.

---

Set aside.

In a medium bowl , mix together the remaining ranch mix , ground beef , onion and barbecue sauce.

---

Mix well.

---

Form into 4 large flat patties and grill over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes per side or until cooked through.

Top each with about 3 tablespoons shredded cheese while still warm.

Grill bread slices until lightly toasted.

To assemble , top each bread slice with a lettuce leaf , 2 tomato slices and a burger patty.
