Important Notes

⚠️

Freshly grinding ribeye provides a high-quality fat-to-meat ratio and superior flavor compared to pre-ground beef.

⚠️

The onions must be sliced paper-thin so they effectively fuse into the meat and caramelize quickly.

⚠️

Smashed burgers require a very hot pan (preferably cast iron) to achieve the signature crispy 'lacy' edges.
