  1. I don't like it too thin. The crust make may be good but the texture is off. Its like pebbly, closer to taco meat than a burger patty. Oh and Shake That, top tier popcorn topping.

  2. I prefer the lacey edge style smash burger in the style of George Motz, but he taught me to do it with a heavy spatula. I was trying to go traditionalist when I got my spatula and my burgers are amazing, but it’s work to get consistency with that method, so I definitely want to get a press like what you just showcased and I’ve known that for awhile. Practicality over cool. I know it’s going to be so much easier to smash with a tool like Neil’s. Hopefully he’s not too pricey. If not I’ll buy what I can. If you have a press recommendation, I’ll hear it. I did tell my girlfriend that I want a certain cookbook from those YouTube brothers I like. We’ll see if she gets it done. If not I’ll buy it after the holidays! Thanks guys! Have a great holiday!

  3. I love the very thin burgers! But need lettuce, tomato, grilled onions, thousand island dressing, just like In an Out Burger makes…. Can I get a smell ya for that? Hahahaha, I also like to dome my burger Patties for 30 seconds to melt the cheese…..let me just say that my Blackstone purchase was worth it just to make smash burgers!
    Shout out to the flat top king for sending the care package, love your channel as well!
    All of you are awesome, love your content, keep it coming, I don’t really watch tv much, mostly you tube!
    Cooking is my passion… thank you all for your inspiration!

  4. I haven’t done the side by side taste test yet, but one thing I have found is that I’ve never made a smash burger I didn’t love. Even ones that are over cooked don’t seem that dry to me (I’ve never had them copiously overcooked yet). Overall, I smash mine quite thin. As thin as your #2? Either that or a bit thinner. However, I prefer not having my patty as thin as a cornflake, so by eyeballing your experiment, I think I’d lean on #2. As always, you guys are awesome. I’m a big fan of Neil’s groups as well and concur that Smash That is “all that”. Griddle on brothers!

  5. I'd smash that Smash That for sure! I loved this video so much, I will probably watch it again! I've been wondering if I should try different smash levels at the same time to see which I preferred. I would think maybe number 2, but I will have to try it for myself. I ordered some seasonings from the Flat Top King finally, can't wait to try them out. Lets go with this great content, love it! Griddle On!

  6. I have that same smoker in the background. Sadly I have replaced the control module 3x and the temp sensor 1x.
    How you all enjoying all this yoyo weather? lol I enjoy the cooler weather personally but the 2 days of 80* every week has been no fun for me building my house
