     Title: Smash Burgers
Categories: Beef, Cheese, Breads
     Yield: 6 Servings

   1/2 ts Neutral oil
     2 lb Ground chuck
          Salt & black pepper
     8 sl Cheese
     8    Soft hamburger buns; lightly
          - toasted
          Lettuce leaves
          Sliced tomatoes
          Condiments, as desired

 Add oil or butter to a large cast-iron or stainless
 steel skillet and place over medium heat. Gently divide
 ground beef into 8 small piles of around 4 ounces each,
 and even more gently gather them together into orbs that
 are about 2 inches in height. Do not form patties.

 Increase heat under skillet to high. Put half the orbs
 into the skillet with plenty of distance between them
 and, using a stiff metal spatula, press down on each one
 to form a burger that is around 4 inches in diameter and
 about 1/2" thick. Season with salt and pepper.

 Cook without moving until patties have achieved a deep,
 burnished crust, a little less than 2 minutes. Use the
 spatula to scrape free and carefully turn burgers over.
 If using cheese, lay slices on meat.

 Continue to cook until meat is cooked through,
 approximately a minute or so longer. Remove burgers from
 skillet, place on buns and top as desired. Repeat
 process with remaining burgers. Serving two hamburgers
 on a single bun is not an outrageous option.
