A Jess Pryles Smashburger

Carolina Q · August 2019

I have always smashed the beef, cooked it for a bit, flipped it over and added cheese. Or maybe flipped and added already caramelized onions followed by cheese. Then put it on a bun and added toppings. I had never seen a smashburger smashed into caramelized onions before. Looks pretty good.

I'd hit that! Love the caramelized onions. I think I would also have to add in some fire roasted green for hatch chile. Just saying😁

I usually add my favorite burger condiment, a tablespoon of mayo mixed with a teaspoon of dijon mustard. More or less. Adjust to taste, but a good starting point.

I just want Jess Pryles. Not her smash burger. Unless smash burger is code.

I was ordering some HCC Black from her website the other day and even my wife said, dang who's that hot girl? I said that's the creator of this stuff. So even my wife thinks shes a 10.

“Smoosh that baby down”, forever known as Smoosh Burgers! Can’t wait to try this!

I met Jess at the Sunshine State Eggfest a couple years ago. My only issue was she said there were four ingredients: salt, meat, cheese, and buns. Then she pulls out the onions. Hun, that makes five.

I just watched "The Burger Show" on Hulu that included this segment. I have been thinking about the Oklahoma burger since then. The OK burger uses lots and lots of onions shaved really thin.

That's a tough one to get over for sure. Think you'll be alright? 🤪

I saw that segment and had to find a spot that had them... I drove an hour away to give it try, and did not disappoint. I am thinking of heading back over there this weekend...I have not tried to make them myself yet.

I had never heard them called Oklahoma Onion Burgers until you guys linked to that on you tube. All I know is, I haven't made a burger that wasn't a smashburger since I first heard of a smashburger, a year or more ago! The only way to fly!

I posted a cook here for lamb burgers that did that, smashed them down on grilled onions, and it was good, but I wound up deciding it interfered with what's so great about smashed burgers: that edge-to-edge browned surface. I decided there was no benefit to smashing the meat onto the onions, and there was less of that wonderful browned flavor, so I decided next time just to smash as usual and put the caramelized onions on top.

I love Oklahoma burgers. When I make them I follow Kenji's method. He does the initial smash like any regular smash burger than adds the onions on top of the patty prior to the flip. The onions steam a little before browning when flipped. I'm not sure if it really matters but Kenji usually has a reason and they always come out good.

That makes sense.

I cooked a couple last night and they were really good. I used a spiralizer to cut the onions. Smash the bejezus out of the patty, add a ridiculous amount of raw onions on top, flip, cheese, stack both buns cut side down and let them steam. I inverted a pot over the stack for a bit and the buns did steam up beautifully.

It it was really good. The patty only forms a crust on one side and it is steamed on the other, so it is sort of like a hybrid shake shack/ crystal burger.

Did a variation of this on Friday night for my first smash burgers ever. Came out really well but could have smashed a little harder on the first ones.

Family loved them..
