Smash burgers

[Hamdrew]

It was supper and FYI your picture is blurry. I had smashing success with my heavy duty spatula.

yea I thought i remembered you had a good flat-top; vs. me being scared to break my stove when I actually smash them like that.

unfortunately that is the best (only) pic I have of what i meant. basically put those burger balls between a parchment fold and smash with your hand, rolling pin, or whatever you choose. for smashing onions in them, i only partially smash them, then add the onions and finish flattening them. no need to remove them from the parchment, just put the meat to the griddle/skillet and then peel off the paper.


(hopefully starts at 4min)

Thanks for your willingness to share your methods I’m sure it will be helpful for some. Yes smashed burgers can be done on stove top also.
Best tip I can share is don’t pack the meat in your balls to tight. That don’t sound right but I’m not sure how else to say it.

smokin peachey seems only right to share, i certainly didnt invent it lol. and i agree 100% about going loose on the meatballs; only way to get a proper lacy edge IMO. a very coarse grind helps a lot too

Good looking burgers and breakfast. My camp chef FTG is on its way wasn’t sure what to make on it first (other than breakfast) and this post definitely has me decided it will be smash burgers.

Don't want to look like I lack Intelligence, so I'll go with....Damn Fine Job!...JJ

Yeah I’m not sure why some are inclined to write books for threads. A picture is worth a thousand words. Wasn’t there someone that once said wordy people are wordy because they lack intelligence and compensate for there lack of intelligence by using lots of words because they think it makes them sound smart? Anyway I probably just offended someone with words. That’s why pics are better. Less offensive lol!

i only know about this because it was at one time an Adult Swim commercial (LOL), but ya it was I believe Hemmingway and Faulker, one of them said something along the lines of "Poor ______, does he really think big emotions come from big words?".
