Or Fattie?...
A couple questions (and I did search for the answers already) this is about 1.5 lbs of burger
I'm planning on about three hours at 250 ish? Is there an internal temp I should go for?
Thanks!

I would think around 165 internal, but I'll defer to the "masters" on the site! 
I can't wait to see how this one turns out.
Kettle collector AND cooker!

Jeff is right, 165 is a good temp to shoot for internally. You might want to go a little bit higher on your cooking temp to render the bacon? I would almost go 325-350, but that's just me! Looks awesome though...!

Sweet... That gives me an idea, I appreciate it!
I'll post a pic when I take it off :-)

I always yank mine off the grill at 160, and then tent it in foil for another 10 minutes or so while getting everything else ready.  Just make sure to have a drip pan under it.  Between the burger and the bacon, it would leave a hell of a mess in the bottom of the kettle

We expect finished pics  ;)

To me, the sweet spot is a little lower than Gunner's......run at 275f & if you want crispy bacon, use a torch at the end.......

Thanks Buckie, I let it run around 275 to start with and gradually increased to 300 at the end (grate temp)
