Instructions

  • Heat the Blackstone grill over medium high heat (approximately 350 degrees Fahrenheit).
  • Drizzle the vegetable oil over the grill and spread it around with a spatula.
  • Place the beef on the grill.  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.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom of the beef is browned and the beef starts to pull away from the grill.
  • Flip each beef patty.
  • Then top each beef patty with shredded cheese and a tortilla.
  • Press them down again with the spatula or press.
  • Cook for approximately 2 more minutes until browned and the cheese is melted.
  • Flip again and cook for 1 minute until the bottom of the tortillas are browned.
  • Then remove them from the grill, meat side up.
  • Serve topped with the pico de gallo and any other favorite taco toppings.  Enjoy!
