slices American Cheese
Salt and pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the SearNSizzle™ on broil in the highest setting for 10 minutes.
Step 2
To prepare the burger patty separate the meat into two equal balls.
Step 3
Put the meat on a sheet of parchment paper and cover with a second sheet of parchment paper.
Step 4
Press the meat between the sheets of parchment paper to a very thin patty.
Step 5
Using a tea saucer with taller sides to press down the meat will form consistent and even patties.
Step 6
Make sure the patties are an even thickness with no holes.
Step 7
Part of what makes the smash burgers so delicious is the crispy crust they get when cooked with the SearNSizzle™. A sprinkle of salt and pepper on the burger patties assists with this process so give them a good shake before cooking.
Step 8
When the SearNSizzle™ is sufficiently preheated, place the thin patties on the griddle surface and peel back the parchment paper to begin cooking.
Step 9
Adjust the device to cook on Air Crisp for 10 minutes at the highest temperature setting.
Step 10
After a few minutes of cooking, you’ll notice tiny droplets of juices start to rise to the surface of the meat. The more juice droplets you see, the more done the burgers will be.
Step 11
Flip at about four minutes taking care to scrape as much under the burger as possible to keep all the cooked bits intact.
Step 12
Add cheese to the top of the flipped burger.
Step 13
Cook for another minute or so until the cheese has melted to your liking.

Glad to hear Sharon. You are right about diner burgers on those big flat-tops. The Bridgewater Diner was our hangout in NJ back in the day.
