Preparation

Step 1

Grab a little bit of ground beef—I’d say 1/4 cup or so—and roll it onto a ball. Place it on a hot skillet or griddle…

You need two of these small, very thin patties per burger. For that reason, it’s hard to make a whole bunch of these at once unless you have a huge griddle or get lots of pans going at once!

Sprinkle them with salt, let them cook over medium high to high heat for just a minute or two, until they’re nice and brown. Then flip them BOTH over.

Then place the second patty right on top. Because they’re so thin, they should be cooked through at this point.

Without draining it on paper towels or otherwise pretending to increase the health factor of this burger, place it right on a hamburger bun.

Then pop on the lid and serve it with ketchup, mustard, pickles, jalapeno slices, tomato slices, onion slices…whatever makes your skirt fly up!

Heat a griddle over medium-high to high heat. Divide beef in half and roll into rough balls. One at a time, place the beef on the griddle. Place a large (non-slotted) spatula on top and use a coffee mug or large measuring cup to push the spatula and smash the patty very flat. Repeat with the other patty. Sprinkle them both with salt.

Cook them for 1 to 2 minutes, or until they're nice and brown on the first side. Flip them over, wait 45 seconds, the place the slice of cheese on one of the patties. Place the other patty on top of the cheese, give it 15 to 20 seconds to melt, then place directly on the bun.
