The Ultimate 5-Step Smash Burger Recipe | Crispy, Juicy & Packed With Flavor

Smash burgers have been around forever, but doing them right takes science and heat! Learn how to master the perfect crispy-on-the-outside, juicy-on-the-inside patty using pro tips from Grant Lee Crilly

Recipe Steps:
1. Use ultra-high heat — think charcoal grill or cast iron over a burner.
2. Use a fatty grind (60:40 beef to fat) with:
• 1% salt
• 1 egg yolk per pound
• A bit of gelatin for structure and juiciness
3. Form loose balls, not tight patties.
4. Smash hard onto the hot surface — don’t touch until the crust forms.
5. Flip once, then serve hot with your favorite toppings.

Pro Tips:
• Crust needs heat. Don’t fear the sizzle.
• More fat = more flavor and moisture.
• Smash early, not late.
• Let the Maillard reaction do its magic!

Common Pitfalls:
• Juicy patty with no crust? Grill not hot enough.
• Dry burger? Overcooked or wrong fat ratio.

If you're going to both grind your own meat and add salt, gelatin, and yolk, why don't you toss your meat cubes in the stuff and then grind it? That way you won't have to mix the ground meat and alter the texture

I love gelatin, however it is flavorless. And way too many hand gestures and pulling malocclusion expressions.
