Blackstone Smash Burgers are amazing! Just like the original, these copycat Blackstone burgers are filled with flavor and guaranteed to be one of the best summer meals you make on your Blackstone Grill.

My kids really love going to Smashburger, and they absolutely love their burgers made with seasoned ground beef. My kids also love their chocolate shakes and a side of Smash Fries, but the burgers are truly the star of their visit.

The secret is really in the Smash. This creates a juicy and tender burger, but with crispy edges, so you get the best of both worlds. The Blackstone is the perfect tool to get the job done!

What Is A Blackstone Smash Burger?

Smash burgers on the Blackstone include a process or technique to roll the meat into a meatball, then press the burger down with a spatula. This allows each patty to sear, which locks the flavor into the burger and causes it to remain juicy.

After the meat sears for a couple of minutes, it is flattened out to create the best Blackstone burgers you’ll ever taste.

My homemade Blackstone Smash Burger recipe is based on the Smashburger restaurant. It is wildly popular in America, and now there are about 370 restaurants worldwide.

How to make Blackstone Smash Burgers

Step 1: Prepare the meatballs

Start by mixing the ground chuck, salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl. Scoop into 4-ounce meatballs.

Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.

Step 2: Prep the griddle

Oil the grill, then turn the Blackstone on high. You want the Blackstone really hot before you place the burgers on.

Step 3: Cook the burgers

Then, place the burgers on the grill. Once the patties are starting to brown, use your spatula to flatten the burgers. Cook the Blackstone burgers until both sides are done.

Step 4: Add cheese

Add a slice of cheese to the smash burgers on the blackstone and let it melt when the burgers are done.

Remove, add your toppings, and enjoy!
