Cooking Steps

Heat a heavy cast-iron griddle or skillet until very hot.

Take a loose ball of ground beef (about 120-150g), place on griddle and immediately smash it very thin with a burger press or heavy spatula.

Season the top generously with salt and pepper while cooking.

After 1-2 minutes when edges are crispy and brown, flip the patty.

Place cheese slice on top and let it melt while the other side cooks (another 1 minute).

Toast the buns on the griddle with a little butter.

Assemble: Spread special sauce on bottom bun, add shredded lettuce, smashed cheesy patty, caramelized onions, pickles, and top bun.

Serve immediately while the edges are still crispy.
