John Setzler Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 http://youtu.be/4igYmNUoKi8I don't have a Smashburger anywhere near me that I'm aware of, but I was introduced to this concept by Greg at Ballistic BBQ on YouTube recently. I had the burger press fabricated for me and gave it a run tonight for dinner and the burgers were awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
certified106 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Looks GREAT! I am going to have to try doing this without the fancy press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwhinton Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Looking fantastic, John. Where does the drive-thru line start? I missed the details on that griddle you were using. What is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpom Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Looks great! Burgers on the grill are one of those things I'll start craving if I go too long in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Setzler Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 Looking fantastic, John. Where does the drive-thru line start? I missed the details on that griddle you were using. What is it? It's a Camp Chef griddle that I bought to use on my Camp Chef portable propane stove. I think it was about $35 on Amazon... http://www.amazon.com/Camp-Chef-CGG16-G ... ef+griddle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwhinton Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Thanks for the griddle info. I think I will hold out for the Kettle Q. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigrskip Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I made burgers on the akorn friday night, I started with hamburger pressed then cheese and minced onion and then another burger pattie on top pressed, on the grill, awesome but be careful when you bite into them the melted cheese tends to squirt and it is hot......But all the same I am going to try the smash burger I could all most smell it through the monitor.

jrow17 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Nice video John. After watching that video Sunday morning I was craving burgers all day. So I stopped by academy sports and picked up a $10 dollar cast iron griddle so I could try the smash method using a burger press I had already. I threw the griddle on my new 22.5 one touch gold and gave it a try. These burgers came out great, they were real juicy. Here are a few pics.

Motley Que Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 You heated up your grill for that? You could have done the same thing on your stove Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrow17 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Your right I could also do it on the stove but why cook inside when its 75 degrees outside. Plus I like spending most of my time outside and I do like a little charcoal flavor on my burger's.

Motley Que Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Charcoal flavor on a thin burger cooked on a griddle for a few minutes? If you want charcoal flavor.........lose the griddle and cook it over charcoal. That's why you have a charcoal grill.....isn't it? Gee...but that's too easy.. Someone tell all the burger places that cook over charcoal, they're doing it all wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
