 Serves: 2

Difficulty: Easy 

Course: Main

Time: 25min

Ingredients

• 1 pound CG Iberico x Wagyu ground meat
• 1 teaspoon chimichurri seasoning
• Salt and fresh pepper, to taste
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 4 slices provolone cheese
• 2 burger buns
• 1 fresh tomato, sliced
• Fresh romaine or butter lettuce
• CG sliced chorizo
• 2 tablespoons chimichurri sauce
• 1 teaspoon oregano

Preparation

1. Preheat your stovetop griddle over medium-high heat, about 350-400°F.
2. In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the CG Iberico x Wagyu ground meat, chimichurri seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the patties tough.
3. Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and form them into balls, the size of a golf ball.
4. Place the meatballs on the hot grill or griddle. Using a spatula or a burger press, firmly smash each patty down to create a thin, crispy edge. This helps develop the signature crust of a smashburger.
5. Cook the patties for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, add a slice of provolone cheese, as well as oregano, on top of each patty to melt. You may cover this with a pot lid to speed up the cheese melting.
6. Once the patties are cooked, transfer them to a plate and let them rest for a moment.
7. Place the burger buns, cut side down, on the grill or griddle to lightly toast them until they become golden brown.
8. Assemble the burgers: On the bottom half of the toasted buns, spread the mayo over it, then place 2 burger patties with melted provolone cheese.
9. Top each patty with fresh tomato slices, a few leaves of romaine or butter lettuce, and some CG sliced chorizo. Drizzle chimichurri sauce over the chorizo. Close the burgers with the top half of the toasted buns.
10. Serve your delicious CG Iberico x Wagyu Smashburgers with chimichurri and enjoy!
