The Cuisinart Smashed Burger Kit has everything you need to make delicious hamburgers. We recommend using 80% ground beef with a 20% fat content, which will give you crispy edges and a juicy center. Start by placing a ¼ pound ground meatball on the griddle. Then put a piece of burger paper over the meatball to keep the meat from sticking to the press, and smash it into a 6-inch flat patty using the cast iron burger press; it has raised edges that lock in fats, for a juicier burger.

Use the shaker to season the burger with your own blend of seasonings that might include onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Flip the burger using the stainless steel spatula--it's the perfect size and weight for managing food on a griddle, and has an oil resistant comfort-grip handle. It's an exceptional set of tools and makes a great gift.
