How to Make Big Mac Smash Tacos

• Step 1 – In a small bowl, mix together all the sauce ingredients.  Refrigerate until ready to use.  

• Step 2 – Heat the Blackstone grill over medium high heat (approximately 350 degrees Fahrenheit).

• Step 3 – Drizzle the vegetable oil over the grill and spread it around with a spatula in a thin layer.

• Step 4 – Divide the beef into 4 ounce balls. We like to keep in equal portions.

• Step 5 – Place the beef on the hot griddle.  Top each ball with a piece of parchment paper.  Use a large spatula or press, press each one down to smash the beef as thin as possible.

• Step 6 – Season the beef patties with garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper.  

• Step 7 – Cook for 2-3 minutes the beef patties thoroughly. Cook until the bottom of the beef is browned and the beef starts to pull away from the grill.

• Step 8 – Flip each beef patty.

• Step 9 – Then top each beef patty with a tortilla. Press them down again with the spatula or press. Cook for approximately 2 more minutes until browned.  

• Step 10 – Flip again and place cheese on top on the hamburger patties. Cook for 1 minute until the bottom of the tortillas are browned and the cheese is melted.  

• Step 11 – Then remove them from the grill.  

• Step 12 – Topped with the lettuce, pickles and slice onions.  Drizzle the sauce on top and they are ready to serve and enjoy!
