Quick Directions
To Prepare Double Onion Smash Burger Patties:
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat or a griddle to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Divide the beef into 8 (1/3-cup) balls and place them on the hot griddle. Place the burger balls on the heated griddle or skillet and smash them with a spatula until they are no more than 1/2 inch thick. Season each patty with 1/8 teaspoon Italian seasoning and 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder. Place 2 tablespoons of onions on top of the uncooked side of each patty. Cook the patties for 3 to 3 1/2 minutes until the juice begins to run, then turn them. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on the second side or until the onions are browned and the burger reaches a minimum internal temperature of 158 degrees Fahrenheit. Place one slice of mozzarella cheese on each patty and allow the cheese to melt. Place the pepperoni on the griddle and heat it through for 10 to 15 seconds.
Spicy Siracha Mayo:
Whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl until well combined. Cover and keep refrigerated until ready to use.
