Is a GRILLED BURGER really BETTER than the GRIDDLE - Smashburger, Reverse seared, or Flame-kissed!

Today it's a battle of Weber charcoal grill vs Weber griddle to see which burger is best! When I posted my smashburgers vs thick burgers on the griddle video recently, so many of you commented that if you were going to have a thick burger, that you would cook it on the regular charcoal grill.
And we hear you loud and clear... and we agree! You can't beat a flame-kissed thick and juicy cheeseburger... or can you? How does the griddle smashburger compare to the charcoal grilled burger? Let's find out!
We're making 2 different burgers on the Weber kettle grill - one that's slow smoked and then finished off with a nice sear over the flame and the other one that's cooked hot and fast. Then, we'll throw down some quick smash burgers on the Weber griddle to see which one tastes best!

I'm 52 and I've been grilling burgers my whole life. Just got a flat top and did my first Smashburger. It was love at first bite. Gives it that old school, diner taste that cannot be replicated on a grill. My family and I have voted, and I will never grill burgers again. Flat top only baby!

Can't go wrong with any of them! It does though kind of make you realize that we sometimes "loose our way" when we head down the griddle path - I've not even used my new Weber gas grill that I took delivery back in May but have gone through 4 tanks of LP on my griddle in that time. The thing is just so darn flexible and I just keep finding new ways to use it. All that said it's hard to beat the taste of a wood charcoal grilled burger....

We started out with cast iron on a charcoal table. Then graduated to the cheapest weber kettle. After getting several propane griddles, the charcoal stuff became neglected. Last week we breathed new life into the kettle with a rotisserie, and we like it. Planning to run it at least once each month.

Yeah absolutely...and to be honest the ability to smoke meat and use for the griddle is to me unmatched...the flavor combinations are incredible...keep the kettle going for sure...just the other day I smoked a chicken and cream cheese...pulled the meat and made a smoked chicken buffalo chicken Crunch wrap...we just filmed my fathers day video and used both as well...just fantastic combination

While I do have those memories and "taste in my head" of a charcoal burger from growing up to me you can't beat the flavor and quick satisfaction of the smash burger. I guess there is no need for one to be "better' than another when if you have the tools and inclination you can have them all!

It depends on what you want. A griddled burger is going to have a lot of flavor, your frying it in its own fat. I love griddled burgers but I also love some lump charcoal with a chunk of hickory and the meat seasoned with a rub of your liking.

Great video but it’s like apples to oranges. Don’t have a flat top but have a cast iron griddle I can put on my gas grill. I also have a smoker and have tried something similar. When I had a charcoal grill thick ones with the flame kiss were my preference. Then I tried a smoked one and my gas grill have a super hot sear station to finish it off. Comes out almost as good. Smash burgers just from a speed a texture side are unique. Crusty edges and quick cooking. There is no wrong way.

We have a tradition to have grilled hamburgers on Saturday night. It is a carryover from my wife's mom and dad. Since we got our Camp Chef Griddle, we love smash burgers. We have also fell in love with the Oklahoma Onion Burger with a little difference, we dice up bacon, put a small pile on the Griddle and let it cook to tender done but not crispy. Then top the bacon pile with the ultrathin sliced onions and then place the meat ball and smash. When you turn, the bacon grease has caramelized the onions and the bacon bits are now crispy. It has to be American cheese(what is up with subscribers giving you Gref for using the Hamburger gods cheese. That Burger beats any Burger you can do on a grill, charcoal or gas. Love your channel

Finding a 24 inch griddle insert that fits my needs and isn’t too expensive is something I finally found available through Hunsaker. It is the last accessory I have been looking for to make my cooker a three in one outdoor cooker. Can’t wait to get it tomorrow, season it, and expand my outdoor cooking repertoire.

You had me at burger! My tombstone will read "Death by Cheeseburger". I love both. Now that I have a flat top, I can make smash burgers. And, you should always put your grinder disc and housing in the freezer for an hour before and the beef in a half hour before so the fat stays more solid and won't turn to mush.

The difference to me ... When I eat a thick burger, I can put it down, eat a few fries, take a sip of soda, and eat another couple bites of the burger. When I eat a smashburger, I practically inhale it--it never leaves my hands until it is gone--smashburgers are in a league of their own--greasy, juicy, salty--fabulous.

Great vid Neal & Amy. I don’t get up and wear the same clothes or eat the same food everyday. Same holds true for smash & thick. I have the equipment to do them all…including gas. Also it depends if I want a fast cook (smash) or a slower, laid back day (charcoal). I have a Weber gas and a Weber Kettle and a flattop…also a Chargriller kamado. I wanted a Weber gas grill for years but the cost held me back. It’s an awesome grill for convenience…but I’m considering selling it.

Agreed! You are on point my friend. I have 4 ways outside to make a burger and I rotate what my wife and I eat regularly. If I only eat smash burger style for to long I start to miss the nuance in the different versions.

I think with modern lifestyles, cooking burgers over charcoal is more likely to be a summer weekend festive dinner, than a weeknight rush meal. Especially if you have a covered patio, or some outdoor living space. I suppose you could cook extras on Sunday, and reheat them, for a few days.

I used my new 36 inch Blackstone, this 4th of July, and it was absolutely amazing. I was grilling, tri tip, asparagus, zucchini, onions, bell peppers and tomatoes all at the same time. The char was excellent, and the meat was tender and perfectly cooked.. I was amazed how easy cleanup was compared to a conventional grill, and I am in love with this thing. Next time I turn it on, we will be doing smash burgers. Thanks for the video because like my wife said, where has this griddle been all of our lives? The only thing I am going to need is a heat glove because this thing gets hot, especially grilling in 100° heat. Long live the 👑

Another great edition. I don't comment so much but do watch...you've always got it right. The Pub (6-8 0unce burger) is simply a different product (as is a meatloaf) than a smasher, and each does best with the correct technique. I've been grinding chuck for decades and it is always better, but for sure the extra work not just grinding but cleaning up. and there is always a bit of waste besides must be justified, and for more than a couple of Pub burgers perhaps it is, but I make a LOT of smash burgers for just my wife and I, and I don't miss the difference buying pre ground, particularly if you have a butcher. Krogers and Walmart are both capable of some nice house brand brioche buns, by the way 😉

I love them both! A smash burger that's not going to have that smokey grilled flavor, but you're going to build a different flavor profile with that crust. A grill burger is going to get some of the crust but not quite as much. But you're going to have a different smoky flavor. And they are both equally delicious. But my choice is usually a smash burger.

Good segment Niel. You're a far better pitmaster than I'll ever be. I've made both Charcoal and what I call smoke house burgers. I think the reason your reverse seared burgers didn't turn out quit as good cause you had straight Charcoal. I bet if you added wood like hickory or Mesquite, you'd notice a huge difference! That's what I always do when I make Smoke house burgers. You should have a segment doing Smoke house burgers only!

I think that the difference really does depend on what you want from a burger at the time. Some times I want a double smash with all the fixin's... other times I want a Pub Burger... Either way its all good Side note..

Im telling y'all smash burgers on grillgrates with the flatside up on a charcoal grill. It creates the greatest smash burger crust I've done so far. Super hot with small vents, evenly distributed super hot heat that you cannot get on a propane grill with that great charcoal smoke in the air.

I like any kind of burger. Sometimes it's also what you add to it. Like bacon ,avocado, onions, jalepinos, tomatoes, lettuce , green chilli . I think that smash burgers lets you add more ingredients but like l said l like them both ways. Neal that was a great video. Plus adding some "Smash That" seasoning also makes any burger better 👍

Have done a hybrid combination of reverse sear with the “reverse” done on the Weber to 110f (Meater Probe) and then a really hard sear on the flat top with one more crucial step. While the patty is searing on the flat top, drizzle rendered Wagyu fat or clarified butter on the patty. Pull at 125f (will carryover to 130f), let rest for a couple mins, then assemble.

Try the baking soda method for juicier burgers (this method works with any ground meat): mix 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda into about 2 teaspoons of water, mix that mixture into 1 pound of ground beef in a mixing bowl, let the mixed ground beef rest for 15 minutes, then make and cook the burgers. They will be awesome! The baking soda makes the ground meat retain more moisture, and brown better.

@FoxyJeff

I saw a series on the food network where they laid out their ground beef on a cookie sheet and put the seasonings on it there. It allowed the seasoning to hit more of the meat. I thought that was a great idea. I’ve also heard not to over press the hamburger while forming the burger.
@TheFlatTopKing
@TheFlatTopKing Год назад
Definitely on the not over pressing...seasoning the meat before is kidna up in the air for me....not there yet...i think its the old idea that salt draws moisture...we want those burgers juicy....but I also completely understand
