Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef 80/20 fat percentage
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 10 cracks fresh black pepper
  • 6 six-inch flour tortillas
  • 6 slices muenster or provolone cheese
  • shredded lettuce
  • chopped white onion
  • dill pickle chips for topping
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise for burger sauce
  • 1 teaspoon paprika for burger sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder for burger sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder for burger sauce
  • 1 teaspoon mustard for burger sauce
  • 2 tablespoons minced bread & butter pickles for burger sauce
  • 1 tablespoon pickle brine for burger sauce
  • 10 cracks fresh black pepper for burger sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce for burger sauce

Equipment

  • Flat top grill

Method
 

  1. Add all burger sauce ingredients to a bowl and whisk to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Mix the salt and pepper into a bowl. Evenly distribute it over the top and bottom of the ground beef. Divide and roll the beef into 2 1/2 ounce balls and refrigerate.
  3. Preheat the flat top grill on high heat, ungreased.
  4. Place each beef ball on the hot flat top and set a tortilla on top.
  5. Use a smashing tool to press down firmly on each tortilla, smashing the meat until thin. Cook for 1 minute, then press down again and let cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Check if the burgers are browned and crispy, and adjust the heat if necessary.
  7. Once browned and crisp, flip the smash burger tacos onto their tortilla side and cook for another 2 minutes.
  8. Top with cheese and let melt as the tortillas crisp.
  9. Remove from heat and add burger sauce and toppings.
