For the Smashburgers
- Divide the meat into 7 balls. Roll into a ball and season with salt and pepper.
- Get a griddle or cast iron super hot over high heat. Once it starts smoking, add the 3-4 beef balls at a time and top with a flour tortilla. Use a press to smash down and flatten the ball.
- Grill until a golden char develops on the meat and then flip. Turn off the heat and cook on the other side for a minute or two or until the tortilla is slightly crispy and golden - watch it to make sure it doesn’t burn.
- Once flipped, add a spoonful of the bulgogi glaze on top of the meat to let it soak in.
- Repeat this process for all the balls of beef.
- Once they’re all grilled, top with kimchi, gochujang mayo and a sprinkle of scallions.
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
