Divide the ground beef into two equal portions and form into patties. Season with salt and pepper.
Smash and cook
Heat a skillet over high heat. Place one patty down and smash it with a spatula. Cook for about 3 minutes until a crust forms. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes. Repeat with the second patty.
Add cheese
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Tartufo Pecorino cheese on each patty to melt.
