How To Make Smash Burgers

Smash burger balls are a popular method of making smash burgers, which are known for their crispy edges and juicy centers.

Preparation Recommendations:

1. Cooking Surface

Heat a flat, heavy griddle or cast-iron skillet until it’s very hot. This high heat is crucial for getting the characteristic crispy crust on the burger.

2. Smashing The Burger

Place a ball of ground beef on the hot griddle. Using a sturdy spatula or a burger press, smash the ball down into a thin patty. You want to press down hard to ensure the meat spreads out and gets that crispy edge. Some cooks use parchment paper or wax paper between the spatula and the meat to prevent sticking.

3. Seasoning Your Burgers

Season the patty with salt and pepper immediately after smashing. You can also add other seasonings to taste.

4. How To Cook The Burgers

Let the patty cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges are crispy and browned. Flip the patty and cook for an additional minute or until the desired doneness is reached.

5. Cheese & Burger Assembly

• If you’re adding cheese, place a slice on the patty after flipping, so it melts while the burger finishes cooking.
• Toast the buns on the griddle until golden brown.
• Assemble the burger with your choice of toppings and condiments.
