@blackskullsreaper: Double Cheesy Smash Burgers with Special Sauce Juicy beef patties, crispy edges, melted cheese, and a creamy homemade burger sauce make these double smash burgers a real family favorite. Serve them with golden fries for a classic American diner-style dinner right at home. What You'll Need For the Special Burger Sauce 1/2 cup mayonnaise 2 tablespoons ketchup 1 tablespoon yellow mustard 1 tablespoon finely chopped dill pickles 1 teaspoon pickle juice 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika Salt and black pepper to taste For the Smash Burgers 2 pounds ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat) 8 slices American or cheddar cheese 4 hamburger buns 2 tablespoons softened butter 1 tablespoon neutral cooking oil, if needed Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste Optional Toppings 1 small onion, thinly sliced 1 large tomato, sliced 8 lettuce leaves 8 dill pickle slices How to Make It 1\. Make the special sauce by combining the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, chopped pickles, pickle juice, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then refrigerate while preparing the burgers. 2\. Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions, about 4 ounces each. Gently shape each portion into a loose ball without packing the meat tightly. 3\. Spread softened butter over the cut sides of the hamburger buns. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and toast the buns cut-side down for 1–2 minutes, until golden. Set aside. 4\. Heat a heavy skillet or flat griddle over medium-high to high heat until very hot. Add a little cooking oil if needed. 5\. Place a beef ball onto the hot surface and press firmly with a sturdy spatula into a thin patty. Repeat in batches, leaving enough room between patties. 6\. Season the patties with salt and pepper. Cook undisturbed for 2–3 minutes, until the edges are browned and crispy. 7\. Flip each patty and cook for another 1–2 minutes, or until the beef reaches a safe internal temperature of 160°F. Place a slice of cheese on each patty during the final moments of cooking. 8\. Spread the special sauce over the bottom half of each toasted bun. Stack two cheesy patties on each bun. 9\. Add lettuce, tomato, onion, and dill pickle slices if desired. Finish with another spoonful of special sauce and the top bun. 10\. Serve immediately while the patties are hot, the cheese is melted, and the buns are toasted.
