The Ultimate Smash Burger with Dd Special Sauce
Making the perfect smash burger is all about technique. Make sure you start with really good beef, I like medium fat (not lean). I suggest making these on the grill either on a grill mat (see photo) or on a cast iron pan. I will give directions for the grill mat but if you use a cast iron pan, the instructions are the same except you need to preheat the pan for at least 10 minutes over medium heat..
