I want to share with you guys and your followers. I wrote to you about my griddle sticking and I bought the scraper from your suggestion. What I’ve learned by trail and error. I use unsalted butter on my griddle. My burgers didn’t stick and got really crispy and crunchy. The buns toasted up real nice and a 1 minute clean up. Anyone with a griddle where everything is sticking has to try it, butter must be unsalted. Hope this helps someone.

[@frankiesummers21]

Thx will try. Awesome tip

[@mlferg]

How ‘bout mixing some taco mix into the meat before cooking? Then after flipping and cheesing up, you could add traditional taco filling. “Food” for thought!

[@becky7329]

Will try. I would put onions down first, sprinkle with taco seasoning then smash on top of onion/seasoning and then do the rest! Or mix taco seas into meat before making balls. This will be great for camping to limit dishes!

[@johnbhend8565]

Wow! I have never thought of that but will try.

[@lennyherman8923]

I love the Smashed cook book. We’ve tried several and we are loving them. Thank you guys for putting this together.

[@lol224455]

This is our 3rd Cuisinart Griddler. kzbin.infoUgkxMcXT6_MuT0hB3ejyGQQHaeof9bwoWPUf We live in a condo, so the Griddler is our only option for preparing grilled food at home. We literally wore out Griddler # 2 (Griddler #1 was returned with a defective part and replaced, no questions asked). We love this new and improved design. Only 2 plates - instead of 4 - which counts in a small kitchen. The grease trap is a real improvement over the little cups that were sometimes forgotten and sometimes turned over! We decided to cook less with the cover closed, which seems to dry food out quickly, and we really like the result. The "sear" setting works great too. We use our new Griddler for fish to Cuban Sandwiches and beyond. I highly recommend the Griddler!

[@waltwins]

Thank you!

[@johncollins1917]

Don't question the food, just enjoy the food, be the food...this looks like it just works, all the goods and yums needed for a great griddle...another banger!!!

[@waltwins]

Haha!! Ours too!!😂😂. This was last night, and we’re still dreaming of these!!

[@GregoryKwapinski]

Pre-Ordered this book. Now I have the two books. Love the first , Iam sure to love this one too. Thanks and keep putting the smash down.

[@kirkericson8183]

Smell yeah!!! Def doing this and adding some greens, cause you know that means I can call it "healthy!" Much appreciated.

[@robwilkie5382]

Perfect timing, Adam! Griddle On is what I am taco-ing about!!

[@bradcampbell624]

Those are marvelous. I guess since "taco" was still sticking in my mind, i instantly thought "Okla onion & jalapeno" patty and some pico for the topper. I love that crispy tortilla look.

[@stinkincooldesigns8469]

Hey Brett!!! Griddle on!!! Much Luv Fam!!!

[@Optimalworld]

Dang gotta try this great video gonna have to check out that new cookbook ❤😊

[@McTexicanInColorado]

That’s similar to what is sold here in CO as a Mexican hamburger. We put refried beans, cheese, and green chili on top instead of hamburger fixings. So delicious.

[@brianbrink1421]

Looks great. Smells better!! Lol. Definitely gonna try this one next time I make burgers. Thanks.

[@waltwins]

Yes!! You’ll be so glad you did it Brian! Thank you so much for watching brother! Griddle on!!!😁❤️🤙

[@I_am_the_big_dipper]

Congrats on the book guys!

[@howardbarlow578]

Those are great. They're on tap for supper, tonight.

[@Olyphoto7]

Cool concept. I think I would have started with the onions on the griddle and some taco seasoning, then smashed the meatballs into it for some extra flavors. Adam showed up at the best time, eating time 😊

[@AdamMckeithan]

going to try these one night this week. Friend showed me the video and wanted to do it. First thing we will do is add taco seasoning and use a more normal taco cheese.

[@jeffquast5162]

crazy i just saw this idea yesterday and your on top of it nice way to griddle on top of it!!!! thx for sharing as always you guys rock... \m/

[@scottthejeepguy7499]

[@kerkibub6173]

👍👍👍👍👍👍Man so many toppings I could add,on my bucket list

[@HeirloomGameCalls]

NICE!!!!! GONNA TRY THESE FOR SURE!!! We have Tacos on the list for supper soon...maybe a bit of a change up this time.😅

[@robertbernal3180]

Brett the parttys came out a perfect size for those tortillas.👍 Those look delicious l would only add jalapenos. Great recipe Brett.

[@archangel7673]

Pepper Jack cheese !!!!

[@jaredcollins6302]

Brethren! This was amazingly simply and looks so good. Here is a challenge: Maybe try the taco 🌮 version next time with toppings of lettuce 🥬, sour cream, and taco sauce (instead of ketchup, mustard, onion and pickles). Griddle on!

[@anastacie40]

😍👍... Could you please do a southwest version of this, brothers? Thanks.😋

[@2Wheels_NYC]

That's definitely a fun cook!! I'd make a bunch, put in my taco holder, and do a toppings bar for guests!

[@ToddB1]

Oh heck yea!

[@chipitdipit]

Great review Brett! Who needs Adam anyway. Waltwins was always a one man show anyway. You know it is all you Brett...LOL! Just having a little fun. Glad to see Adam get there at the last minute to try the tacos. I see how it works, Brett does all the heavy lifting and Adam comes in to save the show by eating the food...LOL! Must be nice. Kidding of course :) Great review my friends and a very tasty one at that. Fun to watch, but I am sure even better to eat. I think adding lettuce and tomatoes would nice a nice "taco" touch to these as well. Actually, I would how these would be, by making the smashburgers with taco seasoning and using the usual taco condiments? Like a real "smash taco burger"?? That would be interesting to try. Hope you two have a wonderful weekend and a blessed Sunday. God bless!

[@theoutdoorguy8740]

An interesting way to cook those. Personally I like my burgers pretty much well done/ essentially crispy. I personally like mine with mozzarella cheese. I'm going to try the way that you cook those

[@havingfun3619]

Great idea!!

[@PopsAllgood6967]

That is a delicious looking taco. A fantastic idea.

[@mikeymileos]

Thankd for making the video! My tortillas got burnt for some reason when I cooked them at the same temp as the burgers. Any tips?

[@joshuaspires7181]

Best smash video yet

[@wallyyates3577]

Hey guys, love your channel and recipes. I do something a little different for Taco Smash Burgers. I use taco seasoning to season the patties and use taco fixings to dress them out. Almost every video I have watched makes a regular burger on a tortilla or adds a big mac sauce. While I'm sure this is good too, why not taco flavored taco smash burgers? We love them.

[@waltwins]

Thank you so much fam! We totally get it, the purpose for this one, is it was a TikTok viral cooking video, which is probably why you see so many “traditional” Smashburgers in a tortilla - but I’m thinking we need to revisit and do a “Smashburger” taco but more authentically “taco!”🔥🔥

[@chrisdurham4577]

Applebees quesadilla burger! They use a Mexiranch sauce

[@rnvrnv354]

Very nice! What about some fries?

[@Jascadet]

That is so cool... it is kind of weird at first putting the raw meat on the tortilla shell, but the more you think about it, it's okay... plus it's nice you don't have to dirty a press or use any parchment paper! That looked really good, I'll have to try it out. My sister is staying over Easter Weekend and we plan to have smash burgers on Saturday, perhaps I'll do this. I think my mom will appreciate the lower carbs. Hey Adam, nice Zelda tee! I am so stoked for Tears of the Kingdom! Griddle On!

[@lancedean5987]

Sweet, LOZ shirt!

[@jav9888]

Should of done a side by side with Blackstone. Thanks for the Vid cooking this tonight.

[@FritzFrank]

It looks so delicious and simple to make! 🤤😋🍻

[@sgtUSA2012]

Looks good. However; have you thought of using chorizo vs ground beef for a smash burger taco. Or maybe a combination of beed and chorizo? You’d want a leaner beef for this. Also you can jazz up the cheese with some sort of pepper cheddar or pepper jack (habanero would be great). How about make queso fondido (con chorizo) as your cheese sauce? I know there are many different things that can be done with this. Just seeing if this is a route you’d like to do. Enjoy your videos as always. Great job

[@DavidShue]

What size were those burger balls?

[@jabawockee199]

Love your channel! Please keep in mind my next comment is not aimed at you guys. I absolutely hate the term “smash burgers.” It’s such a lazy definition of just making a thin burger. I usually stay away from “crap burger” recipes because they’re just another burger video. Not really anything special. Honestly…a burger is a burger despite how thick or thin it is. THAT being said…You had me at taco. Any cook knows you can make a taco out of darn near anything. I love tacos! So on that note, great video! Side note…a slice of cheese between the meatball and tortilla shell would be awesome. Help hold it together too.

[@waltwins]

Thank you for the comment, we under the sentiment. That said, the owner of Smashburger (the restaurant) perfected this style of pressing the burger which creates a Maillard reaction giving a strong flavored crust on the first side. It’s more than just a thin patty, and top burger experts have worked on perfecting it for themselves (George Motz for example). There’s actually a technique and “science” to it all. We appreciate its not for everyone but absolutely love making them. We appreciate you, and for sure the extra cheese would be incredible! This was first go for sure, so we’ll keep trying new ideas with it!!🤙🤙

[@lucabrasi5070]

Looks good

[@charlest.byersjr.8385]

When you do a regular smash burger what is the weight of each ball you smash, and what was the weight of the ones you did in this podcast?

[@tomsfoodfactory5086]

As I saw you cook these and started to pull them off I thought for sure you were going to stack them similar to a tostada. Then I had a thought: Do that but put the condiments & sauce on like a Big Mac. A Big Mac tostada! It could be a tiktok trend! 🤣

[@wideglidebry]

Gotta work on your spatula approach angle my guy… leaving some of that crust on the griddle when you flip.

[@waltwins]

Thanks for watching - the ceramic surface is much different from the steel griddles, the nylon scraper unfortunately doesn’t hold a sharp enough edge to get under like metal. Something g we’re trying to work on with these units. Cheers.

[@wideglidebry]

@@waltwins yessir, I get it. Look for a bambo spatula and sharpen the edge.

[@waltwins]

@@wideglidebry nice! We were looking at the bamboo scrapers, we also have a wooden prototype, that’s perfect!

[@frankmarullo228]

Good video my friend ! But you need to make them a little longer THANK you Frank from montana.......

[@mikecrice3646]

With the ketchup, mustard and pickles, it's more like a tortilla smashburger. A smashburger taco would be garnished with something like salsa, jalapenos, guacamole, etc.

[@danamuise4117]

Dude I tried this. It’s so freaking greasy I could barely eat it. Buns tend to absorb some grease, but tortillas do not. Grease (not ‘juice’) flows right out of this.

[@waltwins]

Thanks for watching and the feedback - when we press and get the Maillard reaction, the crust helps quite a bit with flavor, and while there is some grease, it was minimal. Not sure if the process worked a bit different? Partly, we try to drain off excess grease before pulling it from the griddle. Sorry you didn’t have the same experience we did! Take care fam!🤙🤙
