Copycat In-N-Out Double-Double Animal Style Burger | Heath Riles BBQ

We’re putting our spin on the classic In-N-Out Double-Double Animal Style Burger and making it at home on the Traeger Flatrock. Fresh ground beef gets smashed on the hot griddle and seasoned with our Burger Seasoning, then topped with American cheese and griddled onions. We finish these copycat Animal Style burgers with homemade sauce, toasted buns, lettuce, tomato, and pickles for a juicy, cheesy burger packed with bold flavor.
