Tips & Notes
Pro tips
- Smash burgers require a very hot griddle or cast iron; press the patty thin immediately for maximum crust development.
- Fried chicken stays crispest when served immediately; coating should be golden-brown before oil reaches 350°F.
- Fresh biscuits are best served warm within 30 minutes of baking; store under a clean kitchen towel to retain steam.
