Instructions
Step 1
In the base of a food processor, add chickpeas, garlic, ground cumin and coriander, flour, parsley, coriander, onions, salt, and pepper. Pulse until all ingredients are blended well and consistency is coarse. Transfer to cutting board and spread mixture out. Then knead in halloumi. Once halloumi is added to the mixture, shape into 4 flat patties. Use your thumb to make a 1cm indent in the centre of each patty (this will help the burgers keep their shape uniform during cooking). Cover and chill in the fridge for an hour.
Step 2
To install the grill plate, position it flat on top of the heating element and gently press down until it sits into place, then close the lid.
Step 3
While holding the smoke box lid open, use the pellet scoop to pour pellets into the smoke box until filled to the top. Then close smoke box lid.

While unit is preheating, remove burgers from fridge.
Step 6
When unit beeps to signify it is preheated and “ADD FOOD” is displayed, open lid, brush burgers with oil and place then onto grill, gently pressing them down to maximize grill marks. Close lid to begin cooking. Check after four minutes and flip when good grill marks are achieved.
Step 7
Close the lid to continue cooking. After 8 minutes check if burgers are cooked. If burgers are not done, cook for additional 2 minutes.
