Beef Smash Patty

Shaved Ribeye Steak

Sauteed Onions & Peppers

Cheese Toppings

Bun

Method

Beef Smash Patty

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into loose balls.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place the beef balls onto the skillet and smash them down with a spatula to form patties. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until browned on one side, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Shaved Ribeye Steak

  1. 3

    Prepare the Ribeye

    Season the shaved ribeye steak with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 4

    Cook the Ribeye

    In the same skillet, after removing the beef patties, add the shaved ribeye steak. Cook for 2-3 minutes until just browned, stirring occasionally.

Sauteed Onions & Peppers

  1. 5

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add olive oil and heat over medium heat. Slice the onion and bell pepper. Add them to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and slightly caramelized.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 6

    Layer the Burger

    On the bottom half of the pretzel bun, place one beef smash patty. Top it with a slice of American cheese, followed by a portion of the sautéed onions and peppers, and then the cooked shaved ribeye steak. Drizzle cheese whiz over the top and finish with the top half of the pretzel bun.
