Instructions

  1. 1
    Gently melt cannabis butter. Stir together with mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, and cayenne pepper to make ShackSauce. Chill.
  2. 2
    Form ground beef into 8 equal balls (about 2.6 oz each) — DO NOT knead, keep loose.
  3. 3
    Heat a cast iron skillet or griddle on high heat until light smoke forms.
  4. 4
    Place 2 beef balls in the skillet and press down hard with a spatula (smash). Season with salt and pepper.
  5. 5
    Sear for 90 seconds on high heat until a brown crust forms. Flip, add cheese, and cook for another 60 seconds. Remove from skillet.
  6. 6
    Toast potato buns in the skillet briefly.
  7. 7
    Spread ShackSauce on bun, layer lettuce and tomato, then place the double patty stack on top.
  8. 8
    Serve immediately — the smashburger is best served hot.

Pro Tips

  • The key is a very hot skillet and aggressive pressing — this creates the caramelized crust. Use cannabis ShackSauce sparingly for optimal dosing.
