To everyone that is seeing this. BUY THEIR cook book. I got it and I have used it , and even dog eared pages and highlighted info in it. For the sceptic of their cook book, the breakfast section, specifically the crepes recipe is amazing.

I would think maybe number 2, but I will have to try it for myself. I ordered some seasonings from the Flat Top King finally, can't wait to try them out. Lets go with this great content, love it!

If you all are ever in the Midwest you need to check out Freddy's Frozen Custard and Steakburgers. Their burgers are smashed very thin and have a prominent crust. It's more than I like honestly as I'm a fan of #2 for your burgers. Not too thick but not so thin it still has some semblance of a burger patty still.

Can you really go wrong with smash burgers? Awesome video guys. I’ve watched a few of Flat Top Kings videos but I always come back to you fellas. I might have to try his seasoning after seeing what you all had to say about it. I look forward to seeing what you guys cook up next. Griddle on!

@@waltwins I’ll check the others out for sure. Immediately after buying my first flat top (Blackstone) I stumbled across your channel. At that time you were unsponsored and using your Blackstone. It’s great how far you’ve came since then. Anytime I’m looking for something new or to try something for the first time channel is where I go to figure how. I appreciate the detail you give in the cooks it really helps me out and I’m certain I’m not alone with that.

Hahahaha, I also like to dome my burger Patties for 30 seconds to melt the cheese…..let me just say that my Blackstone purchase was worth it just to make smash burgers! Shout out to the flat top king for sending the care package, love your channel as well! All of you are awesome, love your content, keep it coming, I don’t really watch tv much, mostly you tube! Cooking is my passion… thank you all for your inspiration!

@glenloewen7507 7 ай бұрын

I haven’t done the side by side taste test yet, but one thing I have found is that I’ve never made a smash burger I didn’t love. Even ones that are over cooked don’t seem that dry to me (I’ve never had them copiously overcooked yet). Overall, I smash mine quite thin. As thin as your #2? Either that or a bit thinner. However, I prefer not having my patty as thin as a cornflake, so by eyeballing your experiment, I think I’d lean on #2. As always, you guys are awesome. I’m a big fan of Neil’s groups as well and concur that Smash That is “all that”. Griddle on brothers!

@michaelives1811 7 ай бұрын

Great video , i would say it depends on what is groun to make the burgers ... beef brisket , ribeye , chuck , or sirloin , back strap( deer ) steak . for the the thinnest smash burger ... sirloin .. get better taste of the spices ... for ribeye the mid smash and for the thickest the brisket .. move beef flavor .. will have to try SMASH THAT .. been watching TFK for some time , but not tried his spices .

I prefer the lacey edge style smash burger in the style of George Motz, but he taught me to do it with a heavy spatula. I was trying to go traditionalist when I got my spatula and my burgers are amazing, but it’s work to get consistency with that method, so I definitely want to get a press like what you just showcased and I’ve known that for awhile. Practicality over cool. I know it’s going to be so much easier to smash with a tool like Neil’s. Hopefully he’s not too pricey. If not I’ll buy what I can. If you have a press recommendation, I’ll hear it. I did tell my girlfriend that I want a certain cookbook from those KZfaq brothers I like. We’ll see if she gets it done. If not I’ll buy it after the holidays! Thanks guys! Have a great holiday!
