Griddle me this?

[smoke ninja]

Have you ever smashed a burger?

Round here griddle burgers have onion. Yea. We all know white castle or krystal does them right but locals know Te-lway and Brays do it best. These are the original oakland county hamburger stands. Im partial to Brays due to how close it was.

Note the iconic donkey on top the building



Problem is they tend to cook burgers to order, including onions. Now any self respecting hazel park native knows it takes 30 minutes to properly caramelize onions. The trick is you gotta give them a head start.


Note one sides on high, the other low.



Homemade buns.



Smells delicious



1/3 oz burgers. Slap ya mama on the burgers, wellers in the glass



Onions look good, drop the meat




SMASH!



Crispy



Toasty



Steamy



Cheesy



Loaded up



A little lettuce, Spicy English mustard on the bun and generously covered in AussieMatts ETA bbq sauce



Damn, i wish i ran my own burger stand

Try simmering the onion in beer for half an hour before putting it on the hotplate

You didn't mention Carter's (wife's favorite). There burgers are a bit larger than the others and do a better job with the onions. And they make the best malted milks. I'm close to both Telway and Bray's. Bray's are O.K. Just to greasy compared to the others for me.
I just picked up a sack of 20 Carter's yesterday when I was down visiting my dad. The best breakfast food!
Long time addiction as I used to live 1.5 miles away. I made many many stops in the morning to bring some into work. I've got them all on speed dial. SLIDERS!


Nice home made buns!

1/3 oz burgers? "Where's the beef?"

 

[AussieMatt]

Looks great, it's hard to beat a good hamburger.

Homemade buns????????? They look perfect- those were homemade?

Sorry for the amazement. I haven't had a full talk of coffee yet this AM

Whats up with the hot English mustard? Sounds good I love mustard. Is that like a spicy brown or horseradish type?

Burgers look great Steve but it's your buns that got my attention... :becky: would probably agree.

Care to share the recipe for them?
