- Flip over the smash burger taco to crisp up the tortilla side. Add a slice of cheese and cooked bacon, cover for a minute to melt the cheese. Remove from the heat, place onto a plate, and let cool for a few minutes. It's ready for the toppings and burger sauce. Enjoy.
Spread Technique
- Place a ball of burger meat onto the middle of flour tortilla. With your hand spread the meat into a thin layer from edge to edge of the tortilla. Place meat side down onto the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes.
