    Ingredients

    Smashburger Tacos






    Burger Sauce





    Directions

    Prepare burger sauce.

    Prepare all ingredients at your workstation.

    Portion beef into roughly 2-ounce individual balls (approximately the size of a golf ball).

    Heat the griddle to high heat for searing. Only heat the burner you will use for searing; the other burners can be used as a cool landing space when you flip your tacos.

    Sprinkle salt and pepper onto one side of the beef and place face-down on the griddle. Do this for all portions, spacing them far enough apart so you may smash them down.

    Quickly place a flour tortilla on top of the beef and smash it down using a spatula or burger press. Press down to ensure the beef is thin. Allow meat to cook for two to three minutes or until beef has darkened and becomes crisp.

    Scrape and flip tacos to cool side of griddle. Do not sear tortillas on the hot surface. Add cheese and cover with a lid to speed up melting.

    Top with your remaining ingredients and serve hot.
