Smashed Burgers - Oh the Juiciness

 

Ingredients List

– Ground Beef (about 1 lb, for 4 patties) I like to use 80/20
– Burger Buns (4, K man like Franz Hawaiian Hamburger Buns)
– Lettuce (1 cup, shredded)
– Tomato (1, sliced)
– Onion (1, sliced)
– Cheese (4 slices)
– Mayonnaise (1/2 cup for the sauce)
– Ketchup (1/4 cup for the sauce)
– Pickles (1/4 cup, chopped for the sauce)
– Salt and Pepper (to taste)

How to Make Juicy Smashed Patty Burgers with Secret Sauce?

1. Make the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, chopped pickles, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside while those flavors meld together.

2. Form the Patties: Take your ground beef and divide it into 4 equal balls.

3. Cook the Patties: Fire-up the Blackstone Grill - Add the meatballs to the stone and smash them down with a spatula to form nice, juicy patties. Cook until they are browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side depending on thickness.

4.Toast the Buns: While those delicious patties are sizzling away, toast your burger buns until they’re golden.

5. Assemble the Burgers: Here comes the fun part! Spread the secret sauce generously on the bottom bun. Add a layer of lettuce, place the cooked patty on top, then add a slice of cheese, some juicy tomato, and onion. Top it off with the other half of the bun.

6. Serve Warm: Plate these beauties up and enjoy your Juicy Smashed Patty Burger with Secret Sauce while they’re still warm and the cheese is melty!

– Don’t overwork the meat when forming patties. Keep it loose for ultimate juiciness!
– Feel free to add your own twist to the sauce. A dash of hot sauce gives it a nice kick!
– If you want to elevate your burger experience, consider adding avocado slices or sautéed mushrooms.
