I commented in this thread about smash burgers.

I made some tonight, and thought I'd share for those with any interest. I had about a one pound skirt steak that I ground along side a one pound ribeye. Makes for a great blend. Got the griddle to about 500 degrees. I pack the beef into 3.5 ounce balls. Salt is the only seasoning I use. I spray the griddle with cooking spray then place a ball down. Put a piece of parchment over the ball, then smash with a grill press. Carefully peel off the parchment so the burger stays completely on the griddle.
Let them cook for 90 seconds. Then using a scraping tool rather than a spatual, I flip the burger making sure to leave all the crust on the burger. Then you have this beautiful even crust.
Top with cheese (American for me), and cook for about a minute. Tonight I did a double decker. Grilled garlic Buns with an extra middle bun. Bun, mayo, tomato, burger, onion, bun, mayo, burger, lettuce, mayo, bun was the bottom up order. They were delicious. Thanks for looking.
