Prepare your smoker for indirect cooking.

In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, chopped bacon, and ranch seasoning.

Form the mixture into burger patties using a burger press.

Cook the patties on the smoker until they reach the desired doneness.

During the last few minutes of cooking, add slices of sharp cheddar and American cheese to melt on top.

Toast the brioche buns on the grill or in a skillet until golden brown.

Assemble the burgers by placing the patty on the bun and topping with sautéed onion, sour cream, Sriracha, and Dukes mayonnaise.
