I got this recipe from my sister who was a dishwasher at the restaurant. She and many employees got fired because she gave everyone shrooms ????

I personally think I made it better than them.

I seasoned my ground beef with what I personally like: black pepper, salt, garlic powder, oregano, paprika, dash of cumin, dash of smoked paprika, dash of adobo.

I also cut up some pickled jalapeños and added them in.

Mixed everything together, let it marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Make the smash burgers.

Top each one with pepper jack cheese.

Make some bacon with brown sugar, make sure to put the brown sugar on right before the bacon is done. You can also sprinkle more on if it didn’t come out sweet, after you take it out of the pan.

Toast potato roll in a little butter. The original recipe does use a potato roll, but I like to use brioche buns. I couldn’t find them at my store so I just used sesame seed buns.

Add the burgers.

Add peach preserves, I used the Bonne Maman

Peach Preserves brand. I used a lot on mine, but to each their own.

Add goat cheese.

Add the bacon.

The original recipe calls for sangria mayo on the top bun. I don’t have that in store, I’m also not going to make it from starch even though I have before ???? you can use a sriracha mayo / any spicy creamy sauce you like on the top bun.

It’s now ready to eat, and it’s amazing ????

I did put onions on mine for the first time and did not like it that way

Goat cheese is a very sharp flavor, my boyfriend didn’t like it on its own, but on the burger he loved it a lot. Had two of these bad boys back to back.
