If you’ve never had a smash burger before, you’re in for a treat.

These no-frills burgers are exactly what they sound like: ground beef that’s cooked in a skillet and smashed with a spatula to create rough, craggy little patties. It’s that rough, uneven texture that allows the edges of the patties to crisp up and get so deliciously crunchy, and cooking them in a super-hot skillet gives them their deep, dark, and flavorful sear.
