Smash Burgers in a Cast Iron Skillet

Step 1 - get beef out Step 2 - put beef away Lovely looking burgers!

I tried this recipe last night. I was not sure what to expect. I have never made a "smash burger" before. I must say that the taste of these burgers was FANTASTIC! I think cooking the burgers and the onions at the same time added an extra element to the taste. Both my wife and daughter were impressed with the results. Thanks for posting from Bakersfield California!

Dude that was EPIC

great job - like the parchment idea 👍

Having just used this skillet for the first time, youtube.com/post/UgkxIst1DRMCWM6dgd9VjXMFXlH4HeElE… to batter-fry some macaroni & cheese, I'm absolutely in love with it. The foldaway design means it actually fits in my very small kitchen, but it also makes everything crazy simple to clean. While the instructions say you should not deep fry in this, you can, but do it with your best judgment; in my case the oil didn't even reach the halfway mark.It's hard to see in the pictures, but the skillet itself has a lip in the corner. This allows steam to get out during cooking if the lid is on (so don't try to steam rice in it), and makes pouring out used oil extremely easy.Cleanup was a dream. After detaching the plug and control circuit, the unit is just three separate pieces: The skillet itself, the lid, and the base which may or may not need any cleaning at all (usually just the handles). Compared to a dedicated deep fryer I purchased in the past, where the heating element was suspended in the oil and everything was difficult to clean, the difference was amazing.I'm definitely looking forward to using this for more things in the future.

Did this today. Thanks for the instructions J!

Thanks for the tip,I forgot I can use my side burner as an extension of my grill,I use a lodge griddle on top of my gas grill to make my Smash burgers,but I can only cook 4 at a time,with the side burner I can make 6 easy for the get togethers,I make the same sauce but with a little A-1 sauce for that extra tang,great video! 👍🏻

Looks amazing. I’ve made these but never with the sautéed onion technique! I will have to try that this summer. Also, grilling at the lake can’t be beat. I grill on Lake Michigan a lot. My favorite place to grill

You can use an portable induction cooktop with cast iron and save on the propane. That's what I do. I hold the smash a bit longer for a crispier bottom but your thicker burgers are nice also.

That’s insane!! I want to eat every bite of it 👀😮 🤤

That looks awesome! Kraft Singles are great, that's traditional. But Swiss cheese and pepper jack works really well too.

Look at that. It looks amazing 😍

Epic burgers my friend! perfect technique!
