Ingredients You’ll Need:
For the Burgers:
Diced onions (to taste)
¼ lb burger balls (adjust per burger)
Your favorite burger rub
Fresh lettuce
Sliced tomatoes
For the Special Burger Sauce:
½ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon mustard
1 tablespoon relish
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Prepare Your Grill: Start by placing your Made In Carbon Steel Griddle on a KoKoMo Grill over high heat. This will ensure an even cooking surface and perfect caramelization for your onions and burgers.
2. Caramelize the Onions: Add the diced onions to the griddle. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes. Once the onions are soft and slightly caramelized, move them to one side of the griddle to keep them warm. Learn how to caramelize onions here.
3. Smash the Burger Balls: Place the ¼ lb burger balls on the griddle and smash them down as thin as possible. The secret to a great smash burger is achieving that thin, crispy edge. Season the patties with your favorite burger rub for an extra kick of flavor.
4. Flip and Cheese: After 3 minutes, flip the burger patties. Add a slice of American cheese on top of each patty, allowing it to melt deliciously over the burger.
5. Toast the Buns: While the patties are cooking, toast the inside of the burger buns on the griddle. This adds a delightful crunch and prevents the buns from getting soggy.
6. Prepare the Special Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together ½ cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons ketchup, 1 tablespoon mustard, 1 tablespoon relish, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika. This sauce is the magic ingredient that brings the whole burger together. Check out more burger sauce recipes.
7. Assemble the Burger: Spread a generous amount of burger sauce on the bottom bun. Layer with fresh lettuce and sliced tomatoes. Place the cheesy burger patty on top, add the caramelized onions, and finish with another dollop of burger sauce. Top with the other half of the bun.
8. Enjoy Your Gourmet Creation! Your Animal Style Smash Burger is ready to be devoured. Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite!
