Subj : Tailgating Grub - 08 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Sun Sep 29 2024 15:13:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 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.
