It was hard to get a good picture, sorry it's not that amazing of a photo 😅 thoughts on how to better photograph a smashburger are welcome if something comes to mind

Just some cheap buns
Two smashed pattes on each (w/salt and pepper)
American cheese
Sliced poblano
And ketchup & mayo

I used to really like doing fresh jalapeno, but now generally have to avoid spicy food for dumb reasons so poblano has been a nice substitute.

For the patties you just roll ground beef into a ball roughly the size of a golf ball, maybe a tad bigger if you want, get your cast iron super hot, and then place your patty ball on the cast iron, and smash it down with a suitable metal implement- I use a flat, non-slotted cookie scraper and use the butt of a silicone spatula to press down on the top of the spatula since it's hard to get good leverage on the cookie scraper without putting your hand too close to the sputtering hot pan

Crust on the beef looks great and cheese looks great!

I say this as a Poblano pepper and burger lover, roast em (grill or oven).

Thanks! Personally I love them best fresh for a bit of crunch and some bright fresh flavor contrast. Jalapeno worked a little better in that way, but I'm cutting down on spicy stuff sadly

I can see how roasted or grilled would be delicious Though! ☺️
