Legato Smash Burger* Recipe

Burger Assembly

1. 1

   Prepare the Patties

   In a large bowl, combine the brisket and short rib. Mix well and form into two equal-sized balls, about 8 ounces each.

2. 2

   Smash the Patties

   Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the balls of meat onto the skillet and immediately smash each ball down with a spatula to create a thin patty. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms.

3. 3

   Flip and Add Cheese

   Flip the patties and immediately place a slice of American cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts.

4. 4

   Toast the Buns

   While the patties are cooking, slice the brioche buns in half and toast them on the skillet until golden brown.

5. 5

   Assemble the Burger

   Spread the malted garlic mayo on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place the smashed patty with melted cheese on top, followed by 2 tablespoons of onion jam and 2 slices of pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.
