Ingredients
1 servings
Patties
80/20 Ground Beef200 g
Sea Salt0.5 tsp
White Onion, sliced paper-thin30 g
Cheddar Cheese, sliced40 g
Adobo Butter
Salted Butter, softened30 g
Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce, finely minced1 tsp

Assembly
Iceberg Lettuce, large outer leaves2 pieces
Pickle Chips4 pieces
Method
Adobo Butter
1
In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the softened salted butter, minced chipotle pepper, and garlic powder until smooth. Set aside.
Patties
2
Divide the ground beef into two tight 100-gram balls. Do not season them yet. Heat a seasoned cast-iron skillet or griddle over high heat until smoking.
3
Place the beef balls onto the hot dry griddle. Press a handful of the paper-thin onions directly on top of each ball. Using a heavy press or spatula, smash the beef down as flat as possible, driving the onions into the meat. Season generously with sea salt.
4
Sear for 2 minutes until the edges are dark, caramelized, and lacy. Flip the patties, ensuring you scrape up all the crispy bits. Immediately place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cook for 1 more minute until the cheese melts.
Plate
5
Lay down the sturdy iceberg lettuce leaves. Stack the cheese-topped smash patties on the lettuce, smear each patty with the spicy adobo butter, top with pickle chips, and wrap up tightly like a street taco to serve hot.
