Instructions
Creating Smash Burger Tacos is straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Beef Mixture: In a bowl, combine ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until combined.
2. Heat the Skillet: Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Beef: Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions. Place each portion in the skillet and press down with a spatula to create a “smash” burger. Cook for 3-4 minutes until browned and crispy.
4. Flip the Patties: Carefully flip the patties and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until fully cooked. Sprinkle cheese on top and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.
5. Warm the Tortillas: While the patties are cooking, warm the tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until soft and pliable.
6. Assemble the Tacos: Place each patty on a tortilla. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, pickles, and any additional toppings you desire.
7. Add Sauce: Drizzle with mayonnaise, hot sauce, or salsa for an extra kick.
8. Serve: Enjoy your Smash Burger Tacos warm, with extra toppings on the side if desired.
