Weigh out beef into 2.5-3 ounces and ball them up loosely, you don’t want to pack the beef too tight.
Place them back in the fridge while you preheat the griddle.
Heat Griddle to 450 degrees or above. Add small amount of oil.
Toast the buns, because these will not take long so you want your buns done first.
Place down burger balls about 4 inches apart. Smash them as thin as possible using either two spatulas or a burger press. You can use parchment paper so the beef doesn't stick to the press or spatulas.
Salt and pepper the smashed beef.
If there are holes that's ok, cook them for 2 minutes then flip.
Add the cheese and cook for 1 more minute.
Plate burgers on a bun and enjoy!
