I’ve given way too much money to Five Guys this year. I tried my hand at making one and, while it wasn’t the same, it was tasty nonetheless. The basic premise is the same for most modern burger outlets:
- 2 flattened beef patties
- Cheese slices in between
- An assortment of fillings (my faves are pickles, ketchup, and mustard)
American chef J. Kenji López-Alt made a video in March demonstrating his way of making a “late night smashed cheeseburger” in the style of a smashburger, as popularised by the fast food chain Smashburger.
My mouth watered throughout the video so stream it below and let us know what you’d have in your smashburger.
