Blackstone Big Boy Smash Burgers
Blackstone Big Boy Smash Burgers is a copycat recipe from Frisch's Big Boy restaurants, smashed burgers on the griddle with tartar sauce!
Equipment
- Blackstone Griddle
- Flat Top Grill/ Griddle
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground beef I used 80/20
- kosher salt, pepper, seasoning blend of choice
- 8 slices American cheese
- 4 burger buns
- 1/2 cup tartar sauce
- 3/4 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/4 cup pickle slices
Instructions
- Roll the ground beef into 8 balls.
- Preheat griddle to medium-high. Place beef on the Blackstone, spaced apart. Use a burger press to smash each flat and thin, twisting slightly. Sprinkle a little kosher salt, pepper, and seasoning blend on burgers. Flip after 2 minutes with spatulas. Note: Place a piece of parchment paper between beef and burger press before smashing to prevent sticking.
- Sprinkle a little more kosher salt, pepper, and seasoning blend on burgers and top each with a slice of cheese. Cook 1 to 2 more minutes until cheese is melted.
- Place buns, cut side down, on griddle for 20 seconds to toast them.
- Assemble each burger with a burger patty on the bottom bun, some tartar sauce, top with another patty, more tartar sauce, lettuce, pickles, and then add the top bun.
