Ingredients
  

For the Smash Burgers
  • 1 lb ground beef 80/20 blend for juiciness
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Prepare the Smash Burgers
  1. In a mixing bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide into 4 equal portions.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place a beef portion in the skillet and smash it down with a spatula to form a thin patty.
  3. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms, then flip and add a slice of cheese if desired. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until cheese melts.
Assemble the Tacos
  1. Warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave.
  2. Place a smash burger patty on each tortilla.
  3. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sour cream, pickled jalapeños, and cilantro.
  4. Serve immediately and enjoy!
