Ingredients
- 2 ½ pounds ground beef 80/20
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 Tablespoons salted butter
- 12 lices cheddar cheese
- 12 slider rolls or Hawaiian Rolls
Instructions
- Roll the beef into approximately 1.5 ounce size balls. Season them with salt and pepper. Place them in the refrigerator until you are ready to cook them.
- Preheat a griddle or cast iron pan over medium high heat (approximately 400 degrees F).
- Cut the slider rolls in half and place them on the griddle for 2 minutes to toast them and then set them aside while you prepare the beef.
- Place the remaining butter on the griddle or cast iron pan. Move it around to melt it. Then place the beef balls on the griddle in the melted butter. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your pan. Then top each one with a piece on parchment paper and then firmly press down to smash the beef into a thin patty with either a burger press or a large spatula and then discard the parchment paper.
- Cook the patties for 2 minutes until the juices in the beef start to raise to the top and the color starts to change. Then scrape under the patty to get under the caramelized parts and flip the patty. Once flipped, do not smash down the patties again. Cook for 1 more minute and place a piece of cheese on the patties to melt. Once the cheese is melted, place half of the patties on top of the other patties.
- Then place the patties on the slider rolls (2 patties per roll).
- Top with your favorite burger toppings and enjoy!
Notes
- When preparing the balls with the beef, do not pack them together. Loosely roll them into balls so that they are easier to smash.
- You can use 90/10 or 93/7 for this recipe to lower the fat content in this recipe, but we think that the 80/20 gives the best flavor to this recipe.
