Recipes
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
• 1 lb ground beef (80/20 fat ratio recommended)
• 1 1⁄2 tbsp Salice Seasoning Better Steak blend
• 4 slices of cheddar or American cheese
• 4 burger buns
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• Toppings: lettuce, tomato, pickles, onion, ketchup, and mayo
Instructions
Season the Beef:
• In a bowl, gently mix the ground beef with Salice Seasoning Better Steak blend until evenly combined. Divide into 4 equal portions and roll into balls.
• Preheat the Skillet or Griddle:
Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat until very hot. No oil is necessary, as the beef will release its own fat.
• Smash the Burgers:
Place one beef ball onto the hot skillet and immediately smash it down with a spatula or burger press to form a thin patty. Hold for 10-15 seconds. Repeat with the remaining beef balls.
• Cook the Patties:
• Cook each patty for 2-3 minutes until the edges are crispy and browned. Flip, add a slice of cheese to each patty, and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
• Prepare the Buns:
Brush the burger buns with melted butter and toast them in a separate pan or on the griddle until golden brown.
• Assemble the Burgers:
• Place the burger patties on the bottom buns, then layer with your favorite toppings. Top with the other half of the bun.
• Serve and Enjoy:
• Serve immediately with fries, coleslaw, or your favorite side dish.
Pro Tips for the Ultimate Smash Burger
- Don't overmix the beef-handle it gently to keep the burgers juicy.
- Use high heat for that signature crispy crust.
- Toast the buns for added texture and flavor.
