Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Smash Burger Tacos:

  • 1 pound ground beef, 80/20 fat percentage
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 10 cracks fresh black pepper
  • 6 (six-inch) flour tortillas
  • 6 slices muenster or provolone cheese

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons minced bread & butter pickles
  • 1 tablespoon pickle brine
  • 10 cracks fresh black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Burger Sauce: Add all burger sauce ingredients to a bowl and whisk to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use; can be made 3 days in advance.
  2. Preparing the Beef Patties: Mix the salt and pepper into a bowl. Divide and roll the seasoned ground beef into 2 1/2 ounce balls. Place in the fridge until ready to cook.
