Instructions

  1. 01

    Stabilize your Kamado Joe grill at 450°F and install the Carbon Steel Griddle. Once hot, oil the griddle and season it with salt and pepper.

  2. 02

    Place the ground beef balls on the hot griddle. Top each one with a small pile of sliced onions and pickled jalapeños. Using a sturdy spatula, press down firmly to smash the patties flat into the griddle. Season the tops with salt and pepper.

  3. 03

    Sear the patties for 2 minutes. Flip and immediately top each one with a mix of shredded Havarti and cheddar cheese. Let cook for another minute until cheese is melted and bubbly.

  4. 04

    Toast the buns on the griddle or grill grate. Spread the burger sauce on the buns. Stack two patties per burger to create your double smash burger, then close the dome for 1 minute to let everything meld together.

  5. 05

    Remove the burgers from the grill and serve hot with your favorite sides—fries, pickles, or grilled veggies.
