Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • Salt Pepper + Three Chiles seasoning
  • 1 small white onion thinly sliced
  • 4 potato buns
  • 8 slices American cheese
  • Sriracha mayo
  • Handful of baby arugula

Instructions

  • Preheat your grill to a medium, direct heat. Place a large griddle or cast iron pan in the grill. We used our Ninja Woodfire Outdoor Grill.
  • Divide the beef into four equal parts and roll them into meatballs. Season with our Salt Pepper + Three Chile seasoning.
  • Grill the onions until they get softened and slightly charred, about 3 minutes. Toast the buns while you’re at it.
  • Lightly oil the pan and place the burgers on the pan. Once juices start to pool at the bottom of the burger use a smash burger press or large metal spatula to smash the burger until it is SUPER THIN!
  • Once you see juices pooling on the meat flip the burger. Add the cheese and cook until melted.
  • Build the burgers by adding sriracha mayo on the bottom bun, a pinch of argula and a burger patty, onions, another burger patty, and more onions.
