Smash Burger Recipe Blackstone

[Kurt]

Have this wonderful snack!

Ingredients:​

• Ground beef (80/20 lean to fat ratio is ideal for juicy burgers)
• Salt and pepper
• American cheese slices
• Hamburger buns
• Butter or cooking oil (for toasting buns)

Optional toppings:​

• Lettuce
• Tomato slices
• Onion slices
• Pickles
• Ketchup, mustard, mayo, or your favorite burger sauces

Instructions:​

1. Preheat your Blackstone griddle: Place it over medium-high heat and allow it to heat up for about 10 minutes. You want the surface to be hot to get that nice sear.
2. Prepare the burger patties:
   • Divide your ground beef into equal-sized portions, usually around 4-6 ounces each, depending on how big you want your burgers.
   • Roll each portion into a ball, being careful not to overwork the meat.
3. Season the patties: Generously season each ball of beef with salt and pepper on all sides.
4. Smash the patties: Place a ball of beef onto the hot griddle and immediately smash it down using a heavy spatula or burger press. Press down firmly to flatten the patty until it's quite thin (about 1/4 inch thick). The thinner edges will crisp up nicely.
5. Cook the patties: Let the patties cook for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to brown and crisp up. Don't press down on them again while they cook; you want to keep the juices inside.
6. Flip and add cheese: Use a metal spatula to carefully scrape under each patty and flip them. Immediately add a slice of American cheese to each patty so it starts melting.
7. Toast the buns: While the cheese is melting, butter the insides of the hamburger buns and place them butter-side down on the griddle to toast until golden brown.
8. Assemble the burgers: Once the cheese is melted and the buns are toasted, remove everything from the griddle. Place a patty on the bottom half of each bun. Add your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, and sauces.
9. Serve: Close the burgers with the top half of the bun and serve immediately while they're hot and juicy.
