Common Questions
What makes smash burgers different from regular burgers?
Smash burgers are thin patties pressed hard onto a hot griddle, creating a crispy, caramelized crust while keeping the inside tender. This technique maximizes the flavorful crust-to-meat ratio.
Why use beef tallow for fries?
Beef tallow fries develop a rich, savory flavor and crispier exterior than vegetable oil, traditional in classic burger joints and food trucks.
