🔥 Let’s Smash
1️⃣ Portion Like a Pro
Divide beef into 8 loose balls (about 2 oz each).
👉 Don’t overwork the meat — loose texture = tender bite.
Keep chilled until cooking.
2️⃣ Heat Things Up
Preheat cast iron or flat-top over high heat until lightly smoking.
🔥 High heat creates that crave-worthy crust.
3️⃣ Smash & Sear
Place beef balls onto hot surface.
Press firmly with a spatula until thin (about ¼ inch).
Season with salt and pepper.
Let cook undisturbed 2–3 minutes.
✨ Watch the marbling work its magic as a deep caramelized crust forms.
4️⃣ Flip & Melt
Scrape under the patty to preserve the crust.
Flip once and top with cheese.
Cook 1–2 minutes until melted and irresistible.
5️⃣ Toast & Build
Butter buns and toast until golden.
