Title: The Ultimate Smash Cheeseburger
Categories: Beef, Cheese, Breads, Vegetables
Yield: 1 servings
1 Soft hamburger roll;
- buttered, toasted
4 oz (110 g) fresh ground chuck,
- in two 2-oz (55 g) balls
Salt & fresh ground pepper
1 sl Good melting cheese;
- American, cheddar, or
- homemade
MMMMM-------------------CONDIMENTS & TOPPINGS------------------------
Mayonnaise
Mustard
Shredded lettuce
Sliced onion
Tomatoes
Pickles
Prepare burger bun by laying toppings on bottom half of
bun. Have it nearby and ready for when your burger is
cooked.
Preheat a large stainless steel sauté pan or skillet
over high heat for 2 minutes. Place balls of beef in pan
and smash down with a stiff metal spatula, using a
second spatula to add pressure. Smashed patties should
be slightly wider than burger bun.
Season generously with salt and pepper and allow to cook
until patties are well browned and tops are beginning to
turn pale pink/gray in spots, about 45 seconds. Using a
bench scraper or the back side of a stiff metal spatula,
carefully scrape patties from pan, making sure to get
all of the browned bits.
Flip patties and immediately place a slice of cheese
over 1 patty, then stack the second directly on top.
Immediately remove from pan and transfer to waiting
burger bun. Serve.
