Description

Delicious smash burgers with crispy edges and juicy interiors, served with a flavorful secret sauce.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb 80/20 ground beef
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 4 slices American cheese
  • 4 brioche buns
  • Toppings: lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, onions
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp pickle juice


Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat.
  2. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, and pickle juice to create the secret sauce.
  3. Form the ground beef into four loose balls and season generously with salt and pepper.
  4. Place each ball on the hot grill or skillet and smash down firmly to form patties. Cook for about 3 minutes until crispy edges form.
  5. Flip the patties and immediately top each with a slice of cheese; cook for an additional minute until melted.
  6. Assemble the burgers by spreading secret sauce on both sides of the brioche buns and layering with patties and desired toppings.

Notes

For a spicy kick, add jalapeños or hot sauce to the secret sauce. Customize toppings based on your taste.
