Two ultra-thin ground beef patties smashed hard on a screaming hot griddle to get those signature lacy, crispy edges, draped in a massive melted cheddar skirt and topped with a crispy fried egg.
Ingredients
1 servings
Smash Patties
Ground beef (80/20 blend)200 g
Beef tallow15 g
Salt0.5 tsp
Black pepper0.5 tsp
Cheese Skirt and Egg
Cheddar cheese (shredded)60 g
Egg1 large
Sugar-free dill pickle slices15 g
Yellow mustard1 tbsp
Method
Smash Patties
1
Divide the ground beef into two tight 100g balls. Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking, then grease with beef tallow.
2
Place the beef balls in the hot skillet. Use a heavy spatula or press to smash them completely flat into thin discs. Season heavily with salt and black pepper. Sear for 2 minutes until the edges are crispy and dark brown, then flip and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove patties and set aside.
Cheese Skirt and Egg
3
Turn the heat down to medium. Scatter the shredded cheddar directly onto the hot skillet in a circle. Let it melt and spread out. Once the edges start to brown and crisp, place the two beef patties on top of the melting cheese. Slide a spatula under the cheese skirt to lift the patties and cheese out in one piece.
4
Crack the egg directly into the remaining fat in the skillet. Fry until the edges are crispy and the yolk is still runny.
Plate
5
Stack the double patties with their crispy cheese skirt onto a plate. Top with the fried egg, sugar-free dill pickles, and a squeeze of yellow mustard for that classic food truck tang.
