How to make SMASH Burgers on the Blackstone Griddle - Everyday BBQ

SMASH Burgers 
on the Blackstone Griddle




Recipe:


I have to say that we REALLY enjoyed these!  I was cooking for a family of five here, you can adjust ingredient quantities to your needs.  You can do these many ways, here's what I did:

Ingredients:

  • 3 Lbs. Ground Beef
  • 2 Thinly Sliced Onions
  • 1 small package of Sliced Mushrooms
  • Fresh Deli American Cheese slices
  • BACON!
  • Your favorite burger seasoning (I used Lawry's Garlic Salt)


Directions:

  • WASH YOUR HANDS FIRST!
  • In an adequate bowl, add ground beef and seasoning, then mix gently but do NOT over mix!  You just want to get the seasoning mixed in.  Form meatballs approximately 1/4-1/3 pound each. 
  • Preheat your griddle to low-med heat. 
  • Cook your onions, mushrooms and bacon to your liking.  Once done, keep them warm while you cook the burgers.
  • Scrape griddle surface to remove excess grease.
  • Place meatballs on griddle surface and leave adequate space in between so there's room to smash them down once they're ready.
  • After approximately 1-2 minutes, smash each burger down and hold for a few seconds as demonstrated in the video.  This gives an even better sear as well as nice crunchy edges!  YUMMY!
  • Once burgers have reached your desired doneness, top each patty with cheese. 
  • BUILD YOUR BURGER AND ENJOY!!!

I added some toppings to mine and melted the cheese on top all on the griddle but you can do it any way you like.

How good is Italian Sausage off a Pellet Grill/Smoker? It's GOOD!!! See the full video here:  https://youtu.be/bNTocZpGCms When I was in the market for a Pellet Grill, I often wondered what certain foods would be like coming off a Pellet Grill.  I watched countess hours of YouTube videos and found lots of great information.  I hope my channel provides the same help to people who are also in the market with questions like I had.   One of the biggest surprises for our family was how GOOD regular sausage was off the grill.  It's absolutely a world a difference between that and a standard gas grill.  On the Pellet Smoker, you can cook the sausage at a lower temperature as well as infuse some smoke flavor, what a difference!   When you cut into one of these (as you'll see in my video) there's an amazing amount of juice that is retained in the meat which adds so much flavor that it's indescribable. I hope you'll give it a try and se...
