Smash Burger with Beef Bacon and Horseradish Mayo
Burgers are better with crust. With a smash burger, you get crispy beef on the outside and a napkin-worthy juicy center. To make this burger even better, it's topped with beef bacon and horseradish mayo.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 8 slices Schmacon beef bacon
- 4 brioche buns
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp prepared horseradish
- 4 leaves green leaf lettuce
- 16 slices red onion
- 1 tsp oil
- 1 lb Certified Angus Beef® brand 80/20 ground beef
- salt and pepper
- 4 slices American cheese
Instructions
- Heat the grill to 400F degrees with a griddle on the grill. Place the beef bacon slices on the griddle and cook for 4-5 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
- Clean the griddle. Toast the buns, cut-side-down for about 30 seconds.
- Combine the mayonnaise and horseradish. Spread onto the bottom bun. Top with lettuce and onions.
- Brush the griddle with oil. Portion the ground beef into four 4-ounce balls, packing loosely.
- Place on the heated griddle. Using a large spatula, smash the burger. Use a second spatula to help, if needed. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Grill for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom is charred. Flip. Season with salt and pepper. Top with cheese. Continue cooking until the cheese is melted.
- Place the burgers on the dressed buns. Spread the top buns with more horseradish mayo. Add to the top and enjoy.
