Cook Time:20 minutes

Ingredients

For the smash burger patties:

  • 1 lb 80/20 ground beef
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 small flour tortillas

Big Mac Special Sauce:

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp French dressing
  • 1 tbsp sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tsp white vinegar
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder

Toppings:

  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 8 slices American cheese
  • ½ cup dill pickle slices
  • ½ white onion finely diced
  • 1 tbsp white sesame seeds optional, for garnish

Instructions

  • Make the sauce. Whisk together all special sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Prep the beef. Divide ground beef into 8 equal balls (about 2 oz each). Season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Heat your skillet. Place a cast iron skillet or griddle over high heat. Let it get screaming hot — about 2 minutes.
  • Smash those patties. Place a tortilla flat in the skillet. Add a beef ball to the center, then use a heavy spatula or burger press to smash it firmly into the tortilla. Press hard and hold for 5 seconds.
  • Cook the first side. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the edges are crispy and brown.
  • Add cheese and flip. Place a slice of American cheese on top, then flip the taco. Cook another 1–2 minutes until the tortilla crisps up.
  • Assemble. Transfer to a plate, beef-side up. Top with special sauce, shredded lettuce, pickles, and diced onion. Serve immediately.
